The same applies to other names written with ideographs, including Chinese and Japanese names which may be written one way, but with a different pronunciation and meaning - the ideographs become a kind of riddle that may be completely obtuse unless explained. kind of like cryptic crossword clues. In this case "'Woman of the throne', 4 phonemes", answer = Iset.
