Murasaki
Murasaki refers to both the heroine of the Genji Monogatari (The Tale of Genji), and the book's author, Murasaki Shikibu. In both cases the name is a pseudonym: the author's name has been lost, while the character goes unnamed. The name Murasaki is inspired by a poem that the novel's hero, Genji, improvises when contemplating his first meeting with the novel's heroine, the little girl who will grow up to be "Murasaki". "How glad I would be to pick and soon to make mine that little wild plant sprung up from the very root shared by the murasaki."
