The initials of the 3 are in Alphabetical only

Dom - the message is written in Dvorak. Get a keyboard map image of a Dvorak keyboard from google and use it to work out what the letters are on a normal keyboard. I tried using a translation thingy but it was easier to do it on paper. Some of the letters arent moved. Check my spoiler (its one letter out though) for what the vowels are when you go from qwerty-dvorak, and manleym's translation spoiler.

Ahhhh thanks Smile Yay in the top 5 yet again!

A pointer worth noting is that one of these names is frequently spelled incorrectly online. Be careful to check the correct spellings by researching more than one page.

I didn't have the faintest idea what this was on about until I read the posts from Sammykat that pointed me in the right direction.

This helped, as did that hallowed portal of knowledge known as Wikipedia
