Wikipedia on Naivety

"Naivety (or naïvety, naïveté, etc.), is the state of being naive—having or showing a lack of experience, understanding or sophistication, often in a context where one neglects pragmatism in favor of moral idealism."

Naivety does not exclude hidden agendas, cunning or anything else. Your definition of naivety to me seems no the common consensus.
