Kellus' truenaming (http://www.giantitp.com/forums/showthread.php?t=90961). Because the ToM one sucks rocks.

Spellword Polyglot

What most people don't realize about magic is that it's power source is essentially the same as that of truenaming. While truenamers use the simpler words in the language of the universe and use it directly, wizards use convoluted rituals for the same effect without ever realizing what it is that they are actually doing. Spellword Polyglots however, are a mix of the two. They recognize that, as no-one can actually speak truespeak, they need all the help they can get. Thus they blend wizardly rituals and the words of a truenamer into one, uniform art.

Prerequisites
Spellcasting: Ability to cast level 1 Arcane spells
