Pikmin 4 Planet Naming Scheme

As everyone knows, Hocotate is named after NOJ headquarters, and Koppai is named after Nintendo's founding name. I am suggesting that the new planets named in Pikmin 4 also follow the apparent naming scheme of things relating to real-world Nintendo. My evidence so far is the conspicuously similarly named Enohee and Enohay, which I believe are allusions to NOE and NOA, Nintendo of Europe and Nintendo of America respectively. The issue is that I'm unable to figure out the rest, likely because a lot of them must come from places or words in Japanese that I wouldn't be casually familiar with. If anyone else can help figure these out, it would be an enormous step towards... Something, probably.

Fortunately, someone from Japan has already worked out the meaning of all the planet names! https://www.reddit.com/r/Pikmin/comments/15l79t3/planet_names_and_their_inspirations/ I plan to add these to the wiki when I get around to it, but if you want to do it sooner, feel free to. — Soprano_(talk) 17:29, August 14, 2023 (EDT)
