As near as I can tell, there isn't a name for it.
The Greek prefix miso- means hatred (as in misogyny, hatred of women). But misophobia is listed as an alternate spelling for mysophobia, which is a fear of dirt.
The closest I can come is sociophobia, which is a fear of people in general. There's also athazagoraphobia, which is the fear of being ignored or forgotten, and xenophobia, fear of strangers.
