Adleman is clearly the R, or you're breaking the scheme.
Adi Shamir might have something to say about that sentence.
True. Adi Shamir is the S.
Rivest–Shamir–Adleman
adi shamiR (I'm sorry)
Alternative history/facts: all the letters in RSA are from Adi Shamir's unixname (rsa). Because 'asr' (Adi ShamiR) was already taken, he started using the reversed string instead ('rsa'), and used it as the command name for the first unix implementation of the RSA algorithm, which he developed all by himself.
If Adleman just had a first name starting with S, it would still work!
leona*R*d adleman, ron rive*S*t, and *A*di shamir, clearly.
