♡Diabolik Lovers Name Headcanons♡
(Hello! I thought it would be fun to write about potential name headcanons based on Shu’s original name, Riri. Since it’s speculated that he is named after lillies, I thought it would be fun to give the other sakamaki bros flowery names as well)
♥︎ Subaru- I think he would definitely have a name themed around roses. Christa loved roses, and even had her own rose, which Subaru likes to explore. I can see her wanting to name her son after something she loves. Roses also have many thorns yet are very beautiful, and I think this could represent his cold exterior yet soft interior. I think he could also have a rose themed name, such as Rozario, Roslin, or Rosen, all of which are connected to rose or rose gardens. His real name could even just be “Rose”.
♥︎ Kanato- I think he would be named after lavender. It’s a pretty, purple flower, which bears great resemblance to his hair and eye color. However, they often symbolize love, devotion, and loyalty. Despite his craziness, he is incredibly devoted to the player and only them, and is also very sweet to them once he knows the player is his. They also have a sweet smell, which goes well with his love of sweets and sweet things. The name “Lavender” would suit him well.
♥︎ Ayato- I think he would be named after carnations. They have many different meanings, depending on what color they are. Red can mean deep love or connection. White can mean pure and innocent love. And pink can mean remembrance. I think all of these meanings symbolize Ayato pretty well, however, I think red carnations fit him the most. Red seems to be his “signature” color, along with this, his love for Yui and their deep connection within the game. Carnations are also beautiful, and used for many special occasions, which could symbolize his regality, or pressure to become king from a young age. I think his name would be “Carnation”.
♥︎ Laito- I think he would be named after begonias. These flowers have many different meanings. They can mean caution, which I think helps to symbolize his tragic past, or how sometimes Laito can be very manipulative because of his past. But they also mean gratitude and harmony, as since Yui has been in his life, she has helped to bring balance and stability. I think his real name would be “Begonia”.
♥︎ Reiji- I think he would be named after pansies. They represent thoughtfulness, and at first, Reiji is very meticulous, as he cooks and cleans for all of his brothers, and practically runs the household. I think it could also represent his thoughtfulness as a lover, as the games progress, he becomes very sweet to Yui, and is very considerate of her, being more affectionate and showing more of his feelings towards her. Showing feelings is also a meaning of pansies. I think his name would be some form of “Pansy”.
♥︎ Shu- i wanted to discuss some possible meanings of the name “Lily”. In flower language, lilies have different meanings based on what color they are, similar to carnations. White means purity, yellow means happiness, orange means hatred, and tiger lilies represent pride. I think all of these can fit into Shu’s character in a way, as purity and happiness can represent his childhood before the trauma of being pressured to surpass Ayato and become king. Hatred can represent his rivalry with Reiji and eventually Yuma, and pride can present him being the first born of his family and the weight of expectations. However, something I forgot to mention was that white lilies can also mean rebirth, which I think can show him eventually becoming friends with Yuma again, slowly warming up to Yui and learning to let go of his trauma.
