How's about H for hula hoop -- the Magical Hula Hoop of Time, you spin it hula style (around your belly) and it turns time back or forward (depending on rotation direction), at a rate directly proportional to how attractive the woman doing the spinning is (here's where Romanoff becomes truly indispensable to the Avengers story, 'cause Hulk may be strong, but he sure won't look cool shaking his tub...). And N for noodle soup, the wondrous broth that alleviates the common cold and warms the Soul.

Sorry, I'm sassing you again. I think that even if this Thanos-spelling business has any basis in fact, it's extremely unlikely anyone will guess the word that describes the Stones just based on the initial letter. There's literally thousands of nouns in English beginning with either letter. Perhaps if there were some already-revealed or at least referenced object in the franchise that begins with those letters and could conceivably be the Stone, that may have some chance of hitting on the right name...
