Fun with Anagrams

Sun Nov 19, 2006, 8:53 PM
For those of you who don't know, Anagrams are words you get by rearranging the letters in other words (like if you rearrange the letters in elvis, you get "lives"). Here, in no particular order, are the top ten anagrams of my name (PAUL ERIC LINDGREN). There are probably thousands of possibilities with my name, but I think these all suit me and the kind of art I make. Or they're just funny

1. PLUNDER A NICE GIRL
2. PENCIL A NUDER GIRL
3. A LUNG RIP, RECLINED
4. DANGER: I PULL NICER
5. LUG IN RANCID LEPER
6. REPLICA NUN GIRDLE
7. ALL NICE, DR. RIPE NUG
8. RIDER! NICE GUN, PAL
9. RIPE 'N' UNLACED GIRL
10. RUN, CAD! I'LL PEE! *GRIN*

I would challenge all artists who read this and don't have anything better to do with your time to make up your own anagrams for your name. [link] is a great resource for this. Your best bet is to start by using the advanced search candidate word list and find some good words that describe you, then search for anagrams containing those words.

Go on, get started! It's either this or go back to doing some real artwork, and if you're reading this, you're obviously not inspired enough to do that.

When this girl at the art museum asked me whom I liked better, Monet or Manet, I said, "I like mayonnaise." She just stared at me, so I said it again, louder. Then she left. I guess she went to try to find some mayonnaise for me.

One of these days, Alice, an underage girl is going to hunt me down and kill me for making childporn jokes.

You have a good name for anagrams - just

enough vowels. I especially liked:
PENCIL A NUDER GIRL
DANGER: I PULL NICER
…and the best one of all;
ALL NICE, DR. RIPE NUG


Sadly, like most everything else in my

life, my anagrams work out to be total

nonsense, but they have something to do

with Nazis. Alas, Hitler seems to have

it out for me.

(Cindy Shalene Van Zwol):

1. Vandalize now lynches!
2. Nazi Chew and Slovenly.
3. Now Enslave Zany child.
4. Now lynched Nazi Slave.
5. Zany, Wild venal chosen.
6. Lazy and non-evil chews.
7. Well sinned zany havoc.
8. Hell's zany vice and now.
9. Scandalize envy 'n howl!


Just for fun, I tried the name 'Rebecca Dawn Smith', and an anagram I came up with was:
Screw bad, can hit me.
The manic crabs wed (Egad!)
...and, best for last...
The bad, manic screw


There you have it then, the suprisingly symbolic history of anagrams summed up right there.

You killed Ted, you medieval dickweed!"
you've got a difficult name to anagram, but you might have a little wiggle room, being Cid, Cindy, or Cynthia or whatever the hell it says on your birth certificate. Maybe check and see if variations on that name will give you any different results.

I have to say, a lot of the ones you came up with for Becca are fairly accurate descriptions. Long ago, people used to hire anagrammers as advisors - who would warn their king not to let his prince marry the Lady Rebecca Dawn Smith, for fear that she would infact be "the bad, manic screw". Maybe if I'd known this ahead of time I could have saved myself a lot of time and effort.
