Ahahah I was Reading Nick Bantock's "The Artful Dodger" when I found out that he quoted from someone familiar ^^;; so that Hokuto takes the name from a western poet?

As far as I know, this name appears in the game, AI Buster, and UdeDen 3
*edits* omg the name Maud Gonne somehow is in this profile as well >_<

I'm horribly sorry for reviving a thread more than a year old, but if I'm right you weren't permitted to revive a thread unless you had information highly relavent to the subject at hand...This thread never got any replys, so I consider this information to be highly important, as it give closure.
Anyway, in //AI Buster 2, Story 1, Hokuto reveals that she was greatly inspired by William Butler Yeats, and thus adopted his name to when she needed it. Page 39, if you want to look it up. The wiki on W.B. Yeats reveals that he was an Irish poet, and he had a relationship with a woman named Maud Gonne...it's actually quite interesting to note their relationships.

Stangely, neither of the pages mention their .hack referance. Maybe I'll contribute to them some day...
