Bizarre or unusual transliterations

[Andrew Jameson]

I'm giving a paper for a Translation Seminar in St Petersburg University (Fedorovskie Chteniya,
23-25 October 2003) and am looking for further examples of Cyrillic-Roman transliterations (names,
terms, email addresses) which have strange or bizarre forms. My theme is, basically
"Transliteration, the unknown problem" (for Russians). Any examples, or suggestions where I might
look for them, gratefully received.
