Lanesra

A choice reserved for Arsenal Football Club superfans, Lanesra is like the better known Nevaeh in that it's a word spelled backwards and transformed into something that sounds more conventionally name-like. Surprisingly similar to Larissa, Lana, Vanessa, and Lorenza, Lanesra might pass as a rare name unless anyone is paying close attention to the letters.

Used since at least 2009 (according to this article), it made the England and Wales stats for the first time in 2022, while in a more recent year, it was given to 7 girls. Typically pronounced luh-NEZ-ruh, the softer luh-NES-ruh could work too.

The popular London-based football team is named in honor of its origins: the club, in its earliest form, can be traced back to a group of workers from the Woolwich Arsenal Armament Factory, who started a football team in 1886.

Pronounced luh-NEZ-ruh.
