Answer
My answer is:
SNORCIMO
Explaination:
The word sequence given contains in order the 12th (Mu), 13th (Nu), 14th (Xi), and 16th (Pi) letters of the Greek alphabet reversed with an added "S". The missing Greek letter in the order is the 15th letter of the alphabet (Omicron). Following the same naming convention gives you SNORCIMO:
Mu = SUM
Nu = SUN
Xi = SIX
Omicron = SNORCIMO
Pi = SIP
