First syllable of POTUS whose last syllable begins the String

Just to be clear, you mean the given name and not nickname.

First syllable of the same name whose last syllable is in the string. Plus it fits the conditions.

Thanks. Got it now. I was looking at the first syllable of the first name of a potus whose last syllable begins the string.

So just to clarify- does the last syllable begin the string, or is it just IN the string?

As it says--''begins the string.''

The words are JUST, FANS, SALT, HUNT, WASH, FUND. After rearranging and following instructions, you should have FNSA, FUND, HTUN, UJST, SLTA, and WASH.
