Turn all changes after latest origin/main into a branch

I have a git history that basically looks like this:

```
* commit: XXX (HEAD -> main)
|
|
* commit: YYY
|
|
* commit: ZZZ (origin/main)
|
|
...
```

Now I would like to turn everything after the last origin/main into a named branch (that is, the changed repository would look as if I branched at commit: ZZZ).

Is this possible, and if so, what is the best way to do it?
