Notes like this should be on Maika's page anyway. :-/

One of the reasons why we do this is because once upon a time, someone claimed "Non-Japanese (note: 'English', since that was the only other language the) don't have meaningful names". Sonika and Avanna, at the very least, are proof otherwise. One refers is "Golden Beauty" and one unintentionally means "Gracious breath of life" (fluke translation).
