- The final character ヲ is the archaic form of the particle 'wo', which is almost never used in modern Japanese names or standard writing outside of specific stylistic choices.
- In Japanese media, writing a name in Katakana can sometimes suggest that the character is 'otherworldly' or lacks a traditional human origin.
- The name カナヲ is written entirely in Katakana, a script usually reserved for foreign loanwords or emphasis, rather than the traditional Kanji used for Japanese names.
