Dream Word

[poliphilo]

I woke up from a dream about World War I with a word in my head.

Ha, I thought, maybe I've just solved the mystery of the universe.

But I've Googled the word with all the variant spellings I can think of and it doesn't seem to exist.

Unless, of course,  you know different...

It seems like a name of some kind or possibly a title.

Here it is- Ceausipher.

Nothing shows up in the OED, assuming you haven't already tried there.

I tried Sosipher (which I thought looked promising) and all sorts of other variants- no luck with any of them.:(
