- Since キャシディ is written in Katakana, it is a phonetic transcription. A person named 'Cassidy' could choose to write their name using Kanji characters to give it a specific meaning, such as 'clear' or 'beautiful'.
- The syllable 'di' in キャシディ is a relatively modern addition to the Japanese phonetic system, constructed by combining the 'de' sound with a small 'i' (ィ).
- Adding a honorific like さん (san) after キャシディ is essential in social settings. Calling someone just キャシディ without a suffix can sound overly intimate or even rude to a native speaker.
