re-name yourself in another language

Post by Lord Zombiac »

1. make an anagram out of your name consisting of words, excluding proper names. use this site to make it easy:
www.mbhs.edu/~bconnell/cgi-bin/anagram.cgi
2. go to google translate and paste those English words
translate to the language of your choice, discarding results that leave words untranslated.
3. IF you have words untranslated in a language you really want a new name in, use an alternate anagram.
4. Break the words up, in sequence, into first and last names, or in any grouping of the letters, in sequence you want.
My name, "Shahrom Hawley"
gives me this in Welsh:
Mae Gyfanllym Fy.
Latvian:
Skarbuvi Samana
Japanese:
Kibishiizen Taiwata Shino
Latin: Totus Mihidura

I know there are engines that "find your name," but this method creates some rather unique results.

I'll try your way tomorrow, LZ, but in the meantime, my name is 'you don't say!' in Korean.

Koreans say 'you don't say!' (or 'really?') ALOT. I had a sore neck, and was paranoid as ...., after half a day.
