#566 Anagram of your NAME

 Anagram of your Name

Source: BlogChatter

I came across the word ‘Anagram’ for the first time when I was in my 8th standard.

It was when I was so dedicatedly working towards building my vocabulary. I would write down every new word that I came across in my diary and search for its meaning in a dictionary that I won in a competition previously.

Remember, it was a time in the early 2000s when the internet was a relatively new term, and not many had access to it. Even though I had access to the internet at my home through a landline connection, I was more acquainted with reading physical books.

Anagram according to Merriam Webster means,

a word or phrase made by transposing the letters of another word or phrase

I had started journaling in a diary that was gifted to me by my uncle a year ago. I was amused by my new finding and wanted to explore it a bit more.

My curiosity led me to try forming an Anagram of my name; after several hit and trials, an Anagram that got approved by my mind was

Saiga Strawin

This name is formed by jumbling the letters of my name: Swati Sarangi

Woah! I got a westernized version of my name formed from the letters of my name. How cool is that!

The next thing I did was to note it down in my journal.

Whenever I felt demotivated, I would look at this Anagram in my diary and would console myself by saying,

How can I ever fail when there’s a win in my name?


Year after year, as I climbed up the ladder of life in the form of advancing age, many diaries got filled up in which I journaled about my aspirations, fears, ideas, findings, joys, and sorrows.

My mother preserved all my journal diaries so lovingly despite moving apartments until I made all of them flow in a nearby river a few years ago.

I made them flow not because I hated my past but because I felt a need to move forward in my life from my glorious past in which I lived each second of it to the fullest. I no longer wanted to dwell in my past but appreciate the present and hope for a better future.

So, I give you, my readers, a little task to form Anagrams of your names and share them in the comment section. I can’t wait to find those fancy formations of your names.
