Significant Anagram

Writers frequently give out names which have important anagrams, often as a way of hiding significant facts in plain sight or drawing clever (and plausibly-deniable) parallels between characters. For example, This Troper might become Shroer Pitt. (405 results found.) Or Report Shit! Similarly, characters hunting for a clever alias, or attempting to rename themselves, have a strange tendency to choose anagrams.

For obvious reasons, this is more common in printed media. By necessity, appearances in films or TV shows are often accompanied by Hollywood Spelling.

Supertrope to Sdrawkcab Name.
