The First Letter Of Each Inception Character’s Names Combines Into An Intriguing Acronym
Needless to say, Inception is one deep film (literally and figuratively), with clever, multilayered design in almost detail, right down to even the names of the central characters. While each character’s name does possess a certain symbolic meaning, such as the architect Ariadne (Ellen Page) being synonymous with a Greek mythological known for helping a minotaur out of a labyrinth, a hidden message exists in their initials alone. Combining the first letter of just six principle characters’ names (Dom, Robert, Eames, Arthur, Mal and Saito) spells the word “dreams,” and when you take into account Peter, Ariadne and Yusuf, the acronym reads “dreams pay.”
