I wonder if he's just getting a new name for arbitrary reasons (like HPJEV, Bellatrix, etc.), for just this sort of anagram fun, or for some story-related significance to his mother naming him after her brother instead of her father?
Her maiden canon name is Black, not completely arbitrary.
Bella wasn't entirely arbitrary, it was to set up a joke when Harry thought Quirrel was talking about Sirius.
