* In ''The Rogues Gallery'' on ''Website/Fireball20XL'', there is a character called Nala Navilos, whose name is both the name of the author and the name of his AuthorAvatar, Alan Solivan, written backwards. This was poked fun at in a Q&A session on The Fallout Shelter forums - a forum-goer asked Nala if she realised that her name was Mr O.M.A.'s (the actual representation of the author in the comic, standing for "Original Manga Author") name backwards. Nala corrected them that it was actually Big Nasty's (the character Alan Solivan's nickname) name backwards, unless her name was suddenly Rohtua Agnam Lanigiro. Mr O.M.A. then remarked that that didn't sound like such a bad name. Another comic on ''Website/Fireball20XL'', one of the many short-lived sprite comics made by Psyguy, had an EvilCounterpart of Sonic named Cinos. His sprite was even just a Sonic sprite with the colours inverted.

* ''WebVideo/SlimecicleCinematicUniverse'': On Day 10 of "We Spent 100 Days in a Hardcore Minecraft Apocalypse", after returning to the city for resources and befriending Florida Man, Charlie goes back to the house he built in the woods with Florida Man, only to find it struck and destroyed by an asteroid, which is a natural disaster with an ''astronomically low'' chance of happening. In his narration, Charlie calls himself "reverse LetsPlay/{{Dream}}", or "Maerd", because of his absolute lack of luck.

** In "[[Recap/AmericanDadS8E7SeasonsBeatings Seasons Beatings]]", Jeff and Haley adopt a son, whom Jeff names Nemo; however, when evidence piles up that he's actually TheAntichrist, Jeff suddenly realizes that "Nemo" is "[[Film/TheOmen Omen]]" backwards! Roger {{lampshade|Hanging}}s the fact that this "clue" doesn't really make sense, given that Jeff picked the name himself.

* ''VideoGame/DoubleDragon III'': The NES version begins with Marian ([[SpellMyNameWithAnS or Marion]], as it's spelled here) [[DamselInDistress getting kidnapped yet again]]. The FinalBoss's name is Princess Noiram. [[spoiler:This is not a coincidence]].

* Chicago Cubs broadcaster Harry Carey was fond of trying to pronounce players' names backwards during slow parts of ballgames.

* Literature/Retief series by Keith Laumer - possibly. The Other Wiki noted that it's "fighter" backwards - phonetically.

* To barely avert ADogNamedDog: instead of a robot named Robot, here's a [[Film/TheAdventuresOfSharkboyAndLavagirl robot named Tobor]].[[note]]Probably shouldn't be used with "[[{{God}} Dog]]" itself, though.[[/note]]

* There were two different [[UsefulNotes/TheGoldenAgeOfComicBooks Golden Age]] comic book villains named "Doctor Allirog".

** One [[UsefulNotes/TheSilverAgeOfComicBooks Silver Age]] comic had Superman deliver some payback by traveling to the 5th Dimension and using his powers to pranking Mxyzptlk (who was in the middle of running for town mayor). Mxy desperately tries to get him to say "Namrepus" to send him back to our world, but even when he does nothing happens; when Supes has had his fun, he voluntarily returns home by saying "[[IKnowYourTrueName Le-Lak]]".

* The Seiddab from old UsefulNotes/ZXSpectrum game ''Astroclone'', making this (in video games, at least) OlderThanTheNES.

* Naxat Soft, the video game division of Kaga Electronics, had a short-lived American subsidiary called Taxan. Ironically, only one of the 11 games Taxan distributed (''Serpent'' for the UsefulNotes/GameBoy) was developed or published by Naxat Soft.

* In ''Sram'' (a French AdventureGame for the UsefulNotes/AmstradCPC), King Egres IV and the HighPriest Cinomeh are reversals of the names of the game's writer (Serge Hauduc‎) and programmer (Jacques Hemonic).

* In ''VideoGame/{{Nectaris}}'', the level names/passwords for maps 17-31 are those of maps 1-16 spelled in reverse. (This is not true of the localized ''Military Madness'' for the UsefulNotes/TurboGrafx16.)

* In ''VideoGame/MegadimensionNeptuniaVII'', the CombinationAttack performed by Uzume Tennouboshi and B-Sha, who are [[AnthropomorphicPersonification Anthropomorphic Personifications]] of the [[UsefulNotes/SegaDreamcast Sega Dreamcast]] and [[Creator/BandaiNamcoEntertainment Bandai Namco]], respecively, is called "Iadnab Ages".

* ''Literature/WorldOfTheFiveGods'': Learned Hallana, double-divine of the Mother and the Bastard, uses 'Dratsab' as a curse.

* [[Characters/UltimateSpiderManMilesMorales Miles Morales]] has an EvilCounterPart clone named Selim.
