Tryndee Nayme Gayme-NEVAEH edition

If you are not already aware of this fad, let the Dada Drummer be the first to alert you to the popularity of novelty name NEVAEH for baby girls in the United States. The name has moved from non-existence to obscurity to trendiness in a matter of about 36 months.

But why is it a novelty name? Because it's HEAVEN spelled backwards. Sigh.

Like any fad--or plague--this is sure to spread. So let's ride the front of the wave, drummers!!

Your challenge this week is to backwards spell any word in order to invent an original tryndee nayme. The winning names will be those that most please the expectant Mom and Dad.

Let me introduce you! Nora and Aron Setates are from central Ohio. Their interests include television, John Grisham novels, Appelbees, and outlet malls. Aron is a regional manager in the copier industry. Nora left her job as a bank teller to stay at home with their first born who is named, you guessed it, Nevaeh.

I like this contest a lot better than the math ones.

Wow, so many that could so easily fit into mainstream society, such as:
Lana Amene
S'Olj Gib Sttub
Lamsib Otpep

And, in the spirit of the Simpsons, I submit:
Yvan eht Noij

I knew a girl in boarding school named Nivla Y Fitzpatrick. NIVLA was her Dad's name: ALVIN Spelled backwards.

She would NEVER EVER tell anyone her middle name. But she got into Princeton.
