Fun With Anagrams (Afghans Warm Unit or Farming What Anus)

If you're a writer of fiction, looking for character names, you may want to consider going to one of the many anagram generators on the Internet and entering your name. I did that for Daniel Fuchs, and here are a few possible character names:

For men:

Alec Dunfish
Ace Lundfish
Chas Dunlief
Sean Dichful

For women:

Nica Feldshu
Luca Endfish
Luca Denfish
Shena Cidful
Ilsa Chudfen
Lisa Chudfen (Ilsa's sister?)
Luna Cedfish

If you're not looking for character names and you just want a few chuckles, try opening up your search, and including your middle name. Here are just a few of the many returns (over 88,000 total) I got for Daniel Runyan Fuchs:

Enchilada Fury Nun
Sunny Arachnid Fuel
Unafraid Lunch Yens
A Chained Funny Slur
A China Deny Unfurls
A Larch Dies Unfunny
A Raunchy End Sinful

This is what one does when one has insomnia, or no new ideas to blog about.

Try it. It's fun!
