Is it a Spanish-style "verb + plural noun" compound (e.g, sacapuntas, rascacielos, rompecabezas)?

If so, does "xoñas" mean "dreams?"
Good guess, but I'm afraid not.

Since VaptuantaDoi's question was about <o>, I meant /ɔ/, but I'll confirm now that it's not from <ō>, either.

Did the onset of the first syllable of
xoñas contain an s?
The onset of the first syllable of the word's ancestor in Classical Latin did not contain <s> or /s/.
