And yet you've got one out of three so far.
Dictionary errors aside, Japanese is clearly not easy to pronounce because you're opting to pronounce it entirely wrong to make it simple, which to Japanese listeners, actually probably makes it not even a word (I mean, why not invent a word and tell people it means whatever you want in whatever dialect strikes your fancy, if you're not going to even stick to the reality of language rules), and to top it all you forgot to check for colloquial differences in meaning.
I honestly appreciate that you want something unique that would provide a fancy lead-in, but I really think you're going to end up giving yourself a long-term headache by trying to do it in a language you don't have much of a grasp of. Why not pick something more meaningful to you personally? Or why not pick an established fictional/mythical figure who stands for the kinds of ethos you want to portray?
