The most common names (none official) is an "emordnilap" or an "anadrome."

Semordnilap is a name coined for a word or phrase that spells a different word or phrase backwards. "semordnilap" is itself "palindromes" spelled backwards. According to author O.V. Michaelsen, it was probably coined by logologist Dmitri A. Borgmann and appeared in Oddities and Curiosities, annotated by Martin Gardner, 1961.

Semordnilaps are also known as anadromes, volvograms, heteropalindromes, semi-palindromes, half-palindromes, reversgrams, mynoretehs, reversible anagrams, or word reversals.
