Sayori is a bullshit fakey name u come up with in middle school when u think u understand japanese names but u don't. i'm not gonna say no one on the planet is named Sayori but it was intended to sound like fakey japanese
the implication of this choice for Sayori is that it's a subtle sign that she's a little different from the other club members. bc Monika's name was deliberately chosen for being Definitely Not Japanese and making her stand out as kind of weird, since she's the President
it's more subtle with Sayori bc she doesn't become President until Monika is gone but i definitely believe the strangeness was an intentional choice for her too
incidentally as far as i know all their names are just written in katakana in the jp translation which is also funny. there's no deep meaning kanji stuff bc they're just programs
on the last day of act 1, after sayori has killed herself but before you find her body, this image appears in the game's files folder. it is called hxppythxughts.png
Aigis refers to the Aegis in Greek mythology, which has been interpreted many ways but i believe in Aigis's case it is a reference to the interpretation of a shield specifically
of the members of SEES who have persona metamorphosis she's also the only one who stays strictly w the greek god theme (junpei's ultimate persona is a mix of greek + egyptian) and i like to think that is symbolic of her devotion to her role
athenashand is a holdover from LJ when username options were slim pickings but i still liked it so i kept it on DW. it is a reference to all that stuff i just said re: the aegis being athena's shield
yeah i didn't pull it up for my stream bc i didn't want to change my window capture settings plus mucking around in the game files before act 1 concludes is BIG SPOILIES but. that is when it appears
