It's not an unreasonable theory, and it makes her renaming to Aquamarine even more important. Actually I had kind of moved on from that theory of Akari's name, as if you look at her name as a whole. The kanji are water-not/lamp-area (though I think the last one is just being phonetic), but figuratively it would mean "June light". Or more figuratively "summer solstice", which hey, happy solstice everyone! It's a good name for someone with a sunny disposition.
When I named "Luminis Labyrinthus", it was riffing off of the Noctis Labyrinthus region of Mars, but in reference to the Galaxy Express crossing the dimensional barrier in a field of lights. I thought about using lucis instead, but decided lumenis matched the story better. Stupid me didn't even realize that lumen is the translation of akari.
