François Rabelais
The pseudonym is a thinly veiled anagram of his own name, under which he published the first two books of "Gargantua and Pantagruel". It is not known whether Rabelais was aware of the implications of the name,"Nasier", which in 21st century thinking is Arabic and means "supporter or protector" and/or implies "You have a vivid imagination who can bring inspired messages to the world. You like to enjoy the pleasures of life ... you can rise to the heights ... you have an ability to avoid trouble".
