I was reading what the names in AA meant until I wondered: Do the names in Ghost Trick mean anything? I noticed Temsik is kesmit backwards which means "fate or destiny". |

Most of the names are related to death & life. I haven't played the English version, so not sure about some of the English names... Sissel <- Shiseru (to die) Lynne <- Rinne (reincarnation) Kuneri (the lamp) <- Kunekune (meander, twist) Kanon (the girl) <- Kannon (as in the Bodhisattva) Cabanela <- Kabanera <- Shikabane (Corpse) Sith <- Shisu (to die) Jiigo <- Jigoku (Hell) Tengo <- Tengoku (Heaven) Etc, etc. |

:o I never would've picked up on most of those... But I always thought Kanon's was Cannon & Missile xP (I suppose that could be why he recycled the name Missile, rather than why he chose the name Kanon.) |

Kabanela's name hardly makes sense though, he's far from dead, one of the most animated members of the cast. Though Jiigo and Tengu just got cooler knowing their meaning. |

Yomiel's Japanese name actually references Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney. Yomiel = Yomieru Yomieru = Yomigaeru And the Japanese name for Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney? Gyakuten Saiban: Yomigaeru Gyakuten. |

The name being a reference to case 5 would make a ton of sense. It's clever. |

Regarding "Temsik", it's "kismet" spelled backwards. Also, "destiny" in my mother tongue, Hindi, is "kismat". Spelled backwards? "Tamsik" -> "Temsik". |
