I prefer the idea of making up a word (a-la eigenclass) to reusing a common
or uncommon English word that doesn't quite mean what we want.

"own class" is pretty good, but it's perhaps easily confused with the normal
class of an object. Maybe some others along the same lines, possible calling
out that this is a single unique use of that class would be more specific:

owned class
pwned class (ha)
self class
selfish class
singular class
monoclass
unaclass
uniclass
unclass
ichiclass
