Being an avid seeker and collector of such "secret" messages, these
intrigue me greatly.  Just from the sound of them, I would guess that
they are anagrams of someones' names.  (An anagram is a rearrangement
of letters, and they are fairly common among authors and musicians.
For example, Jim Morrison called himself "Mr. Mojo Risin'" on LA Woman.)

However, "undoing" anagrams is hard if not impossible, unless you
have some clue about who might have been involved.  Anyone have
any ideas?  Also, if these are name-anagrams, they are on the long
side, and might include middle names.

Thought you'd like to know.
