And Suiren's English name is... *drumroll*

[Koneko Mizuki]

They had to give the English translation (sans "water")? They couldn't just leave it an ethnic name, and leave it like that?

Didn't we HAVE a Lily, and they changed her name to Lanna?

First we had Lily, she is now Lanna, now we have Suiren...who's Lily, um, fail?

I would've thought Natsume would've thought of something with an "S", like Samantha

If they did that the name would really match well with her ethnic appearance. It'd be like naming an Aztec warrior "Rutherford" or something.

Natsume might have thought people would have difficulty pronouncing her name. (Like Chef Boiardi, for example)

I'm thinking Lily's the best shot they had
