Thought this up as I was waking up this morning -- a relatively simple idea for name creating. Basically you take a name that already exists, and bump the letter forward or backward in the alphabet depending on if it's a vowel or consonant. I'll give some examples I thought up:
JOHN SMITH becomes:
KIJP TNESG (consonants forward, vowels backward)
That doesn't look too nice, so let's try the reverse:
HUGM RLOSJ
...well, it doesn't work with every name. ^^; Let's try a popular one from fantasy.
BILBO BAGGINS
Consonants forward, vowels backward, it's:
CEMCI CYHHEPT [Y is counted as a vowel here]
There could be something useful there. And the reverse:
ZOKZU ZEFFOMR
Take off the R and it looks pretty cool, IMO.
Bumping both types of letter in the same direction could yield some interesting results as well. What can you guys come up with?
