For a start (I am working on this): Nauru becomes aruan. But that is a fish.

First thanks of all who tried to help me, and i think zbeckabee is correct, but there was a little mistake in my question, this question was asked by my cousin on sms, but unfortunately this question was not related to english, it was related to my native language Urdu. I found the answer and that was Rome (Capital city of Italy - But if we see in past it was called as a country), In urdu if we reverse the name of Rome (روم) it becomes ( م و ر) and written as (مور) that is called peacock in english.
