I thought Shih-na is a play for "Sinner". Her name was quite a giveaway for her role.


And Ka-shi Nou from "Casino"

Use spoiler tags please. Shih-na comes from her Japanese name, Shiina. It has nothing to do with
Spoiler: Case 5
"Sinner".
Also, how is Ka-Shi Nou "casino"? He has nothing to do with casinos or gambling or anything like that.
Say, that reminds me of a puzzle! Have you ever heard this one, Luke?

Sorry about the spoiler.

Spoiler:
Shih-na's Japanese name is written in Katakana, which means that her name is derived from non-japanese origin.

Using Japanese accent, the english word "sinner" will be pronounced "shinaa" with long "a" as japanese pronounce english suffix "-er" with long "a".

Close enough to make her original Japanese name "Shiina" to be a pun of "sinner"


We know next to nothing about Ka Shi Nou anyway to link his name to anything.
