This Troper was playing a ''Champions'' game once, and the party had failed to stop a
powerful supervillain called "The Sapphire", a supertough magical gem. Later, a foreign national hears of the fight and invites us to the island of Count Erihppas to promote his country's tourism market. We didn't even notice until
the trap was sprung and the DM wrote Erihppas' name in front of us, doing all he could to hold back the maniacal cackling.
Ffffffffffffuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu-

This Troper went to a school where one oddly placed classroom was labeled the Emanon Room. While it looks like it the room was named after someone, it turns out it wasn't named after anybody at all...

This Troper is currently playing a ''D&D'' campaign where a Sdrawkcab Name was used for my own amusement. My character's name? Ambrose Selcitset.

This female troper has a name
a certain famous painting with quite a few vowels and tends to use it backwards when renaming male main character in RPG games. However, she also uses her normal name to rename the pricipal female character, occasionally leading to some {{Selfcest}}.

This is how ThisTroper generates names for his NetHack characters. Get some random word and reverse it.

I'll admit when writing a story when I was about 13 or so, I thought it was the height of subtlety to name a character Neila. In my defense she wasn't literally an alien, just a CloudCuckoolander, and Neila is a legitimate first name, although I didn't know that at the time.

In a story This troper was writing, the main character happens to meet his alternate universe OppositeSexClone, who's name was his own written backwards.
#113140
This Troper had a slight obsession with this in the fourth and fifth grade.
#113141
A partial example: This troper wrote a story in high school where one character was apprenticed to a TimeMaster, training to take his place eventually. Her name? Emi Tenoz. (Spell it backwards and switch the two halves.)

My friend Lauren blames her evil twin Nerual for everything
#113143
This troper's twitter account is his username backwards.
#113144
This troper played a game in elementary (primary) school where we wrote our names backwards on a piece of paper and introduced ourselves with that name. ex. Hailey; "Hello, my name is Yeliah" etc.
#113145
I play D&D, and we once had someone in our group named David, who, as a joke, wanted to name his character Emosewa Si Divad.
#113146
This troper was named his father's name backwards, and his father's reasons for doing so still allude him. While most people have brought to the attention that he's old enough to legally change his name, he keeps it because he doesn't find the name itself particularly bothersome and knows that the people who already know him would stick to the original name regardless. Typical scenarios that happen after the initial reaction (from shock and bewilderment to a minute long lollercoaster, among other things):

Troper deals with some good-mannered jokes at his expense for the next couple of weeks.
#113148
Troper has to resign to being referred to by his father's name either because they can't say it properly or they get a few kicks from doing so (see above).
#113149
Troper has to convince the person he's talking to that he's not spouting BS from his mouth. Usually by pulling out his student ID, an option that's sometimes unavailable when convincing colleagues he just started interacting with over the internet for a project when the class they share has no roll call.

So tropers, think twice before naming your kids something weird, especially if it has a clearly traceable origin like a SdrawkcabName. They'll have to put up with above every month or so. And no, this troper is not going to publically post either name. Not here, anyway. =P
#113151
This troper has been known as Trebor (or as he likes to spell it "Trébor") since the seventh grade, four years later he uses it for stuff on the internet and some people still call him Trebor.
#113152
We had a joke, so-and-so is going to name his baby Lana backwards.
#113153
Me and my friend invented our own language which is written and spoken backwards. Unlike the title of this trope, it is read the opposite way round. Sometimes when we have been chatting in it for a while, I forget to speak English when talking to other people-not yet managed to talk to my friend in our language, but talk to other people normally at the same time.
#113154
This troper was just reading the TroperTales page for NothingIsScarier, and a random thing occurred to her when she looked at the word "Troper" - if you write "troper" backwards, it's "report", which makes sense considering what we troopers do...
#113155
Several of my online character names are done in this style. It all started with Eman Modnar...
#113156
This troper's annoying little brother's name sounds remarkably like 'Naughty' when pronounced backwards.
