<p>Well, if you saw the third Madoka movie, then you know that…</p>

<blockquote class="spoiler">
  <p> Homura turns into a witch at some point of the movie.</p>

<p>Knowing that, I'm trying to decipher what her runes say:</p>

<p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/ZuFkL.png" alt="clean image 2"></p>

<p>Some runes are pretty obvious and others not so much:</p>

<p>This is the rune map that I use; it's from the <a href="http://wiki.puella-magi.net/Deciphering_the_runes" rel="nofollow noreferrer">wiki</a>.</p>

<p><img src="https://i.sstatic.net/npztf.gif" alt="rune-to-Latin map"></p>

<p>As far as I could get, this says something like:</p>

<blockquote>
  <p>H O M _ U</p>
  
  <p>H O M _   LILLY</p>
</blockquote>

<p>At least, that last part is pretty clear. Any suggestions about the meaning of this?</p>

It's been confirmed by [multiple](http://archive.foolz.us/a/search/image/4fSjjtKHolpH-Rz0isv4Qg/) sources (from the movie and game) that it says:

> HOMU
>
> LILLY
>
> HOMULILLY

Which matches up with the PSP game:
