Demyx & Luxord Name Guesses

Back in 2019, when I was still new to Kingdom Hearts, I made a spreadsheet that listed every single possible option for Demyx and Luxord's names. For context, every Nobody (you know Organization XIII, the guys in the black coats? yeah) has a name that is an anagram of their original self's name plus an X. For example, Roxas is "Sora" scrambled with an X thrown in the middle. We know every Organization member's original name… except for Demyx and Luxord. And it's exciting to try and guess! So here's literally every single anagram of their names.

It's worth noting that a Nobody's name has never started with the same letter as their original name. So while it's not necessarily out of the question that Demyx or Luxord's name would start with a D or L, it's not likely. Those columns are italicized because of this.

Since I exhausted every possible name option in these tables, some of them... are keysmashes. Completely incoherent names are marked in gray, and names that are passable but not good are marked in a teal-blue shade. Green denotes the best options, the brighter the better. (And I added some comments in tooltips, if you see a dotted line you can hover for those!)

D	E	M	Y
Demy I can't lie, the idea of Demyx's Nobody name literally being his original name with an X slapped on the end is hilarious.	Edmy	Medy Kinda sounds like melody/medley? I guess?	Ydem I saw a fantheory claim this was a name and believed them, but I looked it up and got almost no results. While it's possible that it's a typically non-Latin-alphabet name, I don't think it's a likely option for Demyx's actual name.
Deym	Edym	Meyd	Ydme
Dyem	Emdy	Myde This is another of the most common guesses. I don't really care for it, but it's not out of the question.	Ymed
Dyme This is one of the most common guesses, but it starts with a D, so I don't think it's likely. However, it is the best name out of all of these.	Emyd I like Emyd the most. It sounds like Emmett, and Demyx looks like an Emmett if I've ever seen one.	Myed	Ymde
Dmey	Eydm	Mdye	Yedm
Dmye	Eymd	Mdey	Yemd

Luxord has a longer name, and thus more possible anagrams. However, he doesn't have enough vowels in his name for most of them to be viable, so most of these are nonsense.

L	U	O	R	D
Luord	Ulord	Olurd	Rulod	Dolur There's a country in FE11 (Archanea) named… Dolhr? Some of the fan translations made it "Doluna". That's what Dolur makes me think of. Oh and it sounds like "dollar" I guess.
Luodr	Ulodr	Oludr	Ruldo	Dolru
Ludor There was a fan theory based around this name! It's a conjugated form of the Latin word for "to play", which made people guess Luxord would be the player character of KHUx. He wasn't, though.	Uldro	Oldur Can you IMAGINE if they just named him. Older	Rudol This is my personal guess! It sounds the best, and is similar to a real name (Rudolph).	Dorlu Reminds me of "drill", romanized for Japanese. And by that I mean it reminds me of the Digimon named Dorulumon.
Ludro	Uldor	Oldru	Rudlo	Dorul This is Dorulumon.
Lurdo	Ulrod	Olrdu	Ruodl	Dourl
Lurod	Ulrdo	Olrud	Ruold	Doulr
Lorud	Udrol	Ourld	Rolud	Dulor
Lordu	Udrlo	Ourdl	Roldu	Dulro
Lodru	Udlro	Oudrl	Rodlu	Durlo
Lodur	Udlor	Oudlr	Rodul	Durol
Loudr Why do so many of these options resemble real words?	Udorl	Ouldr	Rould I don't like this one, but I kept seeing it be brought up. I guess it sounds like "rolled", like dice?	Duorl
Lourd Reminds me of "lard". Means "heavy" in French.	Udolr	Oulrd	Roudl	Duolr
Lroud	Urdol	Orlud	Rluod	Droul I just don't think a fancy guy like Luxord would be named "drool".
Lrodu	Urdlo Some of these sound like Bugsnax names.	Orldu	Rludo	Drolu
Lrudo	Urlod	Ordul Sounds like "order".	Rlduo	Drulo
Lruod	Urldo	Ordlu	Rldou	Druol
Lrdou	Urold ur old lol	Orudl	Rloud	Drlou "Dr. Lou" comes up regularly as a joke. It's pretty funny.
Lrduo	Urodl	Oruld	Rlodu	Drluo
Ldrou	Uordl	Odlru	Rdoul	Dlour
Ldruo	Uorld	Odlur	Rdolu	Dloru
Ldoru	Uodrl	Odurl	Rdulo	Dluro
Ldour	Uodlr	Odulr	Rduol	Dluor
Lduro	Uoldr	Odrlu	Rdlou	Dlrou
Lduor	Uolrd	Odrul	Rdluo	Dlruo
