I've noticed that Letoiles use some Russian terms: for example, "Sertze" is simply Russian for "heart". But it took me two thirds of the game to get that their names are derived from Russian numbers, presumably numbering the order of their production.

Ajin - "odin" (1).

Dovar - "dva" (2).

Tori - "tri" (3).

Chitoria - "chetyre" (4).

Piache - "piat" (5).

Shestil - "shest" (6).

Funny thing because I recently played Letoiles, and I also used to learn Russian when I was younger, yet this thing never occured to me.

Worth noting, that the number 1 is written as "odin", but pronounced "adin" (hence Ajin). Also the number 4 is pronounced "chetyrie" (as Russian "e" is pronounced as "ye").

Now I suspect that Achieitz might be a phonetic approximation to Russian "otietz" (father).
