Name Origin: This name was chosen by Michiko Yokote and is intended to be spelled as “Lucia” in English, as she is named after Saint Lucia (sometimes shown as a mermaid). This is also an English-speaking island country in the Caribbean; the only country named after a woman. Her name is written as るちあ in Hiragana (an alphabet for words with Japanese origin) rather than Katakana, so she can be relatable to the Japanese audience. Writing this name as displayed above autocorrects to the Katakana alphabet.
“It’s like lesbianism 101. Everybody wants to know why you don’t want to be with men. Men, men, men. It doesn’t occur to anyone to ask you why it is you love women.”
