Actually, it's just plain old Greek. It spells MHTHR (meter), the older Greek form of the word meaning "mother" (and the source of the Latin mater).

Tau + Eta =/= "th" in Greek -- that's what Theta is for. If you want to get something phonetically close to "mother" using Greek letters, MOQER would be perhaps be the closest.

Congrats to your daughter, AOII Bama Mom!
