@Ahiku aww Risu is such a cutie. And it's super clever that you named her after another kind of rodent, haha. That makes it tempting to name Nezumi's sister Usagi... but of course that's a Sailor Moon reference, and mixing anime like that is just a horrible, horrible idea. No one would take it seriously xD

Ah, thanks for the link though!

@listenforthelove Yeah, I've seen name analyses of the No. 6 characters... it would be nice to know what kind of trees grew in the forest where Nezumi's people lived, instead of just naming her after a random plant, though...

I found an interesting website about Japanese mythology, and this couple called Izangi (female) and Izanami (male) who are kinda like the Adam and Eve + Orpheus and Eurydice. (For anyone who doesn't know the story of Orpheus: http://www.vcu.edu/engweb/webtexts/eurydice/eurydicemyth.html). Unfortunately, the names Izangi and Izanami don't really mean anything to do with plants. But I kinda like the way they sound. Here's the myth: http://www.ancient-mythology.com/japanese/izangi-izanami.php . What do you guys think of those names for Nezumi and his sister? Should I try harder to find something to do with plants?
