Seven Is Nana | comment |
The Japanese language contains two parallel sets of vocabulary, one of native Japanese origin (yamato kotoba) and one borrowed from Chinese (kango). This means that there are two separate words for numerals, with the native Japanese and Sino-Japanese words for 7 being nana and shichi, respectively. Different words are used for different contexts, and kango is normally used when you count in Japanese. Despite this, however, when Japanese people pronounce 7, nana is almost always used. The problem lies in the fact that Japanese people don't actually like the word shichi, as it sounds too similar to shi, the Sino-Japanese word for 4, which is a homophone for the word for death (thus 4 similarly also uses the native Japanese yon in counting). Being a superstitious people, the Japanese really, really hate invoking death every time they count — and the fact that shichi sounds almost like the Sino-Japanese word for 1, ichi, doesn't help. It's worth noting that 7 is considered a lucky number in Japan. Nana is sometimes used as a feminine name with possible double meaning. If a character appears with the name Nana, expect it to be a Meaningful Name. One, Two, Three, Four, Go! is a Sister Trope. See also Numerical Theme Naming and Goroawase Number. |

In Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, the partner Ice Climber, who in the default outfit will be Nana, has an internal AI level of 77. This is slightly higher than the internal level of a CPU player set to level 8 in the player select menu, suggesting it was chosen more as a pun on Nana's name than from any kind of balance consideration. | |

In Cross Ange, Ange hoards this trope. Voiced by Nana Mizuki, her Vilkiss has a 7 on it, and the jersey she wore during the sports episode in episode 16 has her wearing a number 7 (same thing with the race car she used and the hole in one shot she made was hole number seven). | |

Satou invokes this in Death March to the Parallel World Rhapsody. When he rescues/inherits eight identical busty blonde homunculi, the one designated "Number 7" wins the right to travel with Satou and his companions. Satou, being a self-confirmed Giver of Lame Names, decides to call her "Nana" — much to the chagrin of his fellow Japanese reincarnate. | |

Both main characters in the aptly named series Nana are named Nana and live in apartment 707 — effectively using this trope as its entire premise. They have wildly different personalities which them having the same name only highlights further. Nana K. is called "Hachi" by all of her friends in the story (short for Hachikō, but also meaning eight) to differentiate between them because of her more cheery (and attention demanding) personality. | |

In Reborn! (2004) Tsuna is occasionally associated with the number 27. It's on his door, as well as the mitten form of his X gloves. Tsu sounds like two, and na is seven. Thus, 27. Made cuter by the fact that his mother's name is actually Nana and his father is Iemitsu. The last syllables of their names makes Tsuna's name. | |

In Shichinin no Nana (Seven of Seven)note A decidedly weird title since, per the note above, the Japanese title uses two different "seven" words — whereas English doesn't, even though the second "seven" makes no sense out of context!, a girl named Nana is split into seven personality fragments. And all those fragments get names that describe them and start with Nana. The exception is the eighth, bad Nana, Jamanana. Best of all, the primary Nana's Japanese voice actor is also named Nana (Nana Mizuki, as a matter of fact). |

Tsukihime: Early in the game, Shiki gets a knife engraved with kanji. Assuming they represent words, he reads them as "Seven Nights". They're actually a name: Nanaya, which is the name of Shiki's real family. Nanako in Kagetsu Tohya. Originally... well, not quite originally since she was a human once with a presumably human name. Er. Anyway, previously, her name was Seven, in English, as she's the spirit of the Seventh Scripture; a fusion weapon created from her soul and the horn of a unicorn monster. Arihiko translates that to Japanese, Nana, and then adds a feminine ending to it. There, Nanako the horsegirl, spirit of a BF Harpoon Gun that shoots pages of the Bible. Yep. |
