Reversonyms?

[Mark Peters]

That's my first stab at a name for a type of nickname that is seriously neato, though I only have two examples at the moment.

The first is for myself: My friend Leslie used to call me "Park Meters".

Then my friend Brandi just told me about a woman named Mary Helen she called "Hairy Melon".

So... Does anyone have other examples of names that mean something when you reverse the letters?
