Dear drowser: I thought "retronym" might be what you are looking for, but it has been used in an entirely different way, meaning a new term to replace an old one.
Forthrighrist Phrontistery gives "ananym" for a name written backwards, which doesn't fit your search.
Maybe you could coin one, e.g. "reversonym" Surely you can improve on that.
