Or basically: Use a word that means X, but that can also mean Y, fitting of the character in the former, but implying something different with the latter. I just thought up an example of this. A character whose name is: Hen Tai. Now, Hen, in itself, fits CNR easily. But that's not the wordplay.

Together, it says Hentai. Most people in the west think it means porn, but it actually just means Pervert......and metamorphosis. As in, changes, be they physical or metaphorical.

So, you could make Hen be a pervert of some sort, either chivalrious or a casanova or hardly sympathetic. At the same time, you could use the other meaning of Hentai, to push the idea that Hen is trying to change, in some aspect.
