interretialia:OCOUTIACIRASIREN VALIDAAkiraOkochiPowerful MermaidTranslation Notes:Ococi Acira is simply the Japanese name Okochi Akira Latinized. Acira is declined like any feminine name of Latin’s first declension: Acira, Acirae.Siren, from Greek Σειρήν, means “siren,“ and the Sirens in Graeco-Roman mythology were sometimes portrayed as mermaid-like. Since Akira is depicted as a mermaid on her card, and the Latin form of the Greek word has been appropriated by many of the Romance languages to mean “mermaid” (e.g. Spanish, French, Italian use, respectively, Sirena, Sirène, Sirena), I think the siren on Akira’s card should be taken to mean “mermaid" and not “siren.“ Valida is the feminine form of validus, “powerful.”Card from here. -- source link
