As in Finnish words such as 'Microsoftin' (= "of Microsoft") and 'Nasalta' (= "from NASA").
Well, my comment will be a bit out of topic, but might be interesting for you anyway.

Do you know how is London in Finnish?
It's Lontoo.
How we would say "in London"? Lontoossa.
- "from London"? Lontoosta.
- "to London"? Lontooseen.

And so on (fifteen cases).
