I just feel that stories with secret codes for secret organisations/ names with hidden meanings are so cool and make me want to read them even more, like how Voldemort is french for flight of death, or how Tom Marvolo Riddle smoothly translates to Voldemort.
You could use these for all sorts of situations, dystopian, sci-fi (superhero names/ any code name) an organisation/ operation name, or an intense scene where a character seems to be near execution- until they shout some code word that saves them.
Names (like superhero names)
- phony ("fawney" was something con-artists used)
- mare (nightmare, "mare", an evil spirit)
- sarcasm (from the Greek word "sarkazein" meaning "to tear flesh like a dog"
- eavesdrop (for a character who's discreet, maybe?)
- alarm (italian- "all'arme" meaning "to your weapons"
- belief (beLIEf, maybe for some group that does bad things behind the scenes)
- evil (backwards is "live")
- television (telling a lie to your vision)
- language (french- "languir"- to fall ill/ grieve)
