Rekano's origin began in my High School years. Writing up a story at home I needed a name for the main character.
His name rose from Mortal Kombat, the character Kano. The Re part actually came from talking about Resident Evil.
Rekano Mysuno was the characters full name, however. Here recently other fags have been claiming Rekano, quite frankly Im mad about that.(Namely some douche on DeviantART) The common mistake is pronouncing it.
Re Kano is how you say it. However, due to my stupidity on XBL I spelled it Re Ka No, therefore I hear that. For short I'm called Rek, pronounced Wreck.
