If you were a Touhou character what kind of character would you be, based on your real name's meaning?

For example my name could be roughly translated to "devil tree" so I would probably be a plant-based youkai who's friends with Yuuka and Medicine. Since it can also mean "dogbane", fanart would probably pair me up with Momiji from time to time

My name means something like "Victorious Spirit/Mind" and I don't know what fucking kind of youkai would it be. Since it shares the same root as the name Huginn, a crow from norse mythology maybe I would be some crow tengu or shit.

It's also the same name of a writer so maybe I could also be a book/nerd youkai like Patchouli.

It apparently means Hawk.

And a quick trip to wikipedia reveals:
>A hawk's diet is very predictable in that it includes a variety of smaller animals. Some of these small animals may include snakes, lizards, mice, rabbits, squirrels, and any other type of small game that is found on the ground[4]. More specifically, a Red-shouldered hawk likes to eat smaller birds like doves and bugs like grasshoppers and crickets for example[8].

I would be a good-natured, red-headed zashiki-warashi.

As a Touhou, if I break down the legend and the inspiration for the character (my name), I would be a red-haired LITTLE GIRL who is much older and wiser than she appears, ruling the seemingly empty rooms of the house that she guards as a wise queen. The bullshit Gensokyo power would be Dominion over Common Sense. I'm thinking stage 4 or 5 boss, because I'd have a defined background, but being confined to a house isn't likely to mean the heroines will encounter me any time soon.

My first name means "Friend of Horses" in ancient Greek, so I'd probably be a brown-skinned centauress. But since this is Gensokyo, instead of having the lower body of a horse, I'd just have a dress with coattails shaped like horse legs and a giant futa cock. Also hoping for large, at least D-cup titties. At the same time, though, my last name is Spanish in origin, so instead of carrying Greek weapons, I'd probably be a rodelero, carrying a small metal buckler and a short stabbing sword. My danmaku would revolve around light/scout cavalry formations and maneuvers, so it would do things like curving shots, or swarms of bullets (like a stampede) coming from the sides of the screen.
