3. Obviously you are not English...
To any educated Brit, it would obviously be that well-known Family name, pronounced "Throbwalloper-Bucketschnitzel."

It's easy when you know the rules.

4. Misspelled! It's Mxyzptlk and it's pronounced...

"Mix-yez-pit-lek"

and backward, it's Kltpzyxm, "Kel-tips-ex-im!"

Which, pronounced, makes the elf go :nuke:

As a kid, I was a *MAJOR* Superman fan!

9. By George, I think you've got it!
Except I thought it was:
Mix-yez-pit-Elek

One letter difference, but all important...

(Unless you're right.)
