You seem to presume that the VM letters are really just latin letters 
slightly in disguise.

Mind you though that eg the kyrillian letter which looks like "n" has the 
sound value "p". While a capital kyrillian "n" looks like a latin "H". So, 
if the VM has russian roots, you're already completely off. Perhaps even 
more so if it's greek. (Where "n" would sound "p", too, but "H" would be the 
sound "e", IIRC.)

Furthermore, the EVA transcription only _vaguely_ represents letter shape.

In other words, I think you're on the wrong track.

Cheers,
