When is it appropriate to move "sono" and other verbs to the end?

I've noticed in some Italian TV shows that, especially when the characters announce themselves, they don't say:**io sono [Title] [Name]**but rather**[Title] [Name] sono**I've seen this kind of reversal in other languages, too, but it has very limited contexts, in which it can be said, and is usually meant for emphasis. Is this the case for Italian and is this kind of reversal widely used (for essere and other verbs)?
