Agreeance
The word agreeance, "The state of agreement; when two or more people possess the same opinions or ideas" was once included in most dictionaries and used during the 1500's, according to the Oxford English Dictionary. More notably, the OED, confirmed its validity when Limp Bizkit frontman, Fred Durst, used the word correctly during a speech at the 2003 Grammy Awards.

Agreeance is not moribund. It is simply not used as commonly today as it was centuries ago. Maybe only ‘intelligent’ people use the word nowadays. Just to add, agreeance is not a bastardisation of agreement, it’s the other way round.
