Several initial proposals for the phonetic of R before the finalization of "romeo" included "rome", "rosa" and "roger".  
  
other nuances in the early phonetications involved numbers. for the most part, the numbers can be transmitted without issues, but there were a few problematics that needed stress to ensure they were understood. 3 had to be stressed "thuh-ree"; 4 was spoken as "fower", 5 was "fife" and 9, specifically, was spoken "niner" to avoid confusion with the german "nein" which meant "never" or "no".
