Let’s talk about Rinne’s name!
If you’re wondering what 天城燐音 means, aside from the fact that it’s *obviously* Amagi Rinne♡, I’ll explain it to you.
The surname 天城 Amagi
天 means: heavens, sky, God, beginning Rinne is my 天の賜物/godsend♡
城 means: castle
The name 燐音 Rinne
燐 means: phosphorus
音 means: sound, noise, note (music)
Tip: (maybe you don’t care, but I think it’s a lovely thing) 音 is used for the word 'music' too (音楽/ongaku).
In the game, Rinne says something about the meaning of his name. The pronunciation is ‘Rinne’, just like the transmigration of the soul of a human being or animal into a new body. While ‘Rin’ is something related to cremation or burial because it’s the name of the flame you see when you burn corpses. That's why he considers it something ominous. But adorable at the same time because it's something uncommon, that suits an idol*.
