ArchivesJust for fun: What Esperanto is Behind Your Name?
Something new I'm working on -- anagramming in Esperanto.
If you would like to find out what your hidden, Esperanto name might be, I need both your first and last name. You can scramble the letters in your name for privacy, if you like. I'll anagram an Esperanto name out of your name (with a bit of tweaking, as there are some letters in the English alphabet which don't exist in the Esperanto alphabet, and which will have to be "swapped").
IMPORTANT! In addition to giving me your first and last name (scrambled, if you like), you also must tell me if you are a male or a female.
(Hee-hee! Pavlos is gonna have to do one for Greek names, eventually.)

Uber-spiffy.
Does a middle name work instead of a surname? If so, please give mine a shot: Erin Taoistina.
Ah, yes——I be female. Shocking, ne? :)

Hmmm - I never thought of Esperanto as having its own spellings of personal names, but it's only logical.
Give mine a shot, Miz Nan: Daividh Marshall (male, last time I looked)

"Hmmm - I never thought of Esperanto as having its own spellings of personal names, but it's only logical."
Actually, I'm taking liberties with a lot of these Esperanto first names. However, the Esperanto surnames I give out are actual Esperanto words.
Yep, Esperanto names are pretty much expected to conform to the structure of the Esperanto language -- which means that all nouns must end in the letter "o", or may be represented by an apostrophe (as in Esperanto poetry).
Feminine first names, though, may end in the letter "a" as an exception due to the fact that names ending in "a" are almost universally (well, at least in Europe and the Americas) viewed as being feminine.
An Esperanto anagram of Daividh Marshall (substituting an "l" for a necessary "o") produces:
Avraham' Shildido
Pronounced: ahv-rah-HAM sheel-DEE-DO
Meaning:
Avraham
Shildido is Esperanto for: "Descendant of the Shield".

This will be hard I think, as there are so many A letters in my name.

"all scrambled!!!! but, can you figure out my real name???"
Hmm...
Your first name begins with either a C or an M, and ends in an A?
Your middle name begins with a D and ends with an E?
Your last name was easy: begins with a B and ends with an R. :)
And your Esperanto namegram is...
aaciilmr beerrstw + swapping the w for an o (because there is no w in Esperanto)
=
Marcera Ribelisto
Pronounced: mahr-TSEH-rah ree-beh-LEES-toh
Means:
"Marcera" is a variation of Marcia.
"Ribelisto" in Esperanto means: "professional rebel".

Returning the favor...
Swapping the "y" in your name for an "I" gives us the Esperanto namegram of...
Anastacio Papulo
Pronounced: ah-nah-stah-TSEE-oh pah-POO-loh
Meaning:
"Anastacio" is a variation of Anastasius
"Papulo" in Esperanto means "Pope-man"
You could be "The Black Pope", like Anton LaVey! :D

Cool! Dont worry 'bout the "pope" part, the word originated (according to the OED) from the Greek "pappa" meaning, guess what!, "dad, and and as you know I do happen to be an abused parent.
