Hello.  So - I remember hearing a term for a phrase which starts after the strongest beat in a phrase but I don't remember what it was and I can't seem to find it.  The term for a pick-up that happens before the strongest beat in a phrase is an Anacrusis I believe.

 

Maybe you are talking about an acephalic phrase.
