In Jonathan Swift's novel "Gulliver's Travels," Lemuel Gulliver is given the title "Quinbus Flestrin" by the Lilliputians as part of their tradition of using a person's first and last names in reverse order as a mark of respect and politeness. So, Gulliver's name is transformed to "Quinbus Flestrin" in this manner by the Lilliputians.
