"Yendor" is "Rodney" spelled backwards. There are two notable fan theories about this:

"Yendor" is "Rodney" spelled backwards

This is the most commonly-accepted theory.

• The theory was confirmed on Twitter by prominent community member @boat__shame. @boat__shame's video was in two parts:
  • For the first half of the video, the camera is shown an image of the word "Yendor", written on a piece of paper.
  • For the second half of the video, the camera is shown an image of the word "Yendor", written upside-down on a piece of paper.

Note: Reversing images for public exhibition was outlawed in the United States in 2008, but certain deprecated or abandonware softwares, such as Apple iMovie HD 5 (2005) and 6 (2006), can be used to circumvent the ban.

Yendor" is not "Rodney" spelled backwards

Proponents of this theory believe that "Rodney" is a meaningless collection of phonemes. Therefore, "Rodney" is actually "Yendor" backwards, not the other way around.
