NAMI three times the fun .. EVAngelion Name Meaning Part 2



(The characters' last names are those of Japanese ships that were sunk during World War II. Also, Hikari and her two sisters Kodama and Nozomi are named after Shinkansen lines.)
  • There is one exception to this: Maya Ibuki's surname-sake would have lead the Imperial Japanese Navy's "next generation" cruiser class, but the keel was never laid and the class was cancelled. The HIJMS Maya, however, keeps the theme intact, having been sunk at Leyte Gulf.
  • Even more blatant in Rebuild: First we have Rei Ayanami. Then we have Asuka, whose full name has been changed to Asuka Langley Shikinami. And we have the new female Eva pilot, Mari Illustrious Makinami. (For the record, "nami" means "wave". Whether this has any significance is not yet known.)
    • Shikinami is "Following Wave", the title of 2.0 is "You can (not) Advance". I'd say, yeah.
    • Ayanami, Shikinami, and Makinami are all Ayanami-class warships. Langley and Illustrious are also ships; Langley was the first US aircraft carrier, while Illustrious could refer to one of several British ships, including a battlecruiser and a carrier.

Shinny's the name, do you wanna know the rest?(:P)
04.05.91 when I started making history.

I'm just your ordinary girl and there's really nothing special about me. I just do whatever I wanna do and I make sure that i'll never regret every decision that I make. Everything that goes under the sun's fine with me , I could easily adapt.(^^) I'm not "maarte" but I love to collect make-up and other girly stuffs. Obviously am a hardcore anime girl and a loyal evangelion fan.

The REST, it's for me to know and for you to find out. :]
