Author's Notes
Akiko's given name is a combination of the kanji 明 (aki, "bright") and 子 (ko, "child"). The kanji 明 is usually only read as "aki" in the word 明らか (akiraka, "clear, evident"). However, it is also in other words like 英明 (eimei, "intelligent") and 明るい (akarui, "bright, well-lit" or "cheerful"). I think this encapsulates the combination of both positive energy and intelligence I want for her. Her surname Yamamoto has the kanji 本 (moto, "origin") instead of the kanji 元 (moto, "origin"). The former kanji seems more prevelant in people's name, though the latter is how the actual word for a mountain's base is spelt. Plus, 本 can also be read as "book" (hon), which I felt was fitting. Yamamoto Akiko is also the name of a Japanese pianist.
