Just watched an excellent video on Nohime again on YouTube and I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in Nohime. The video goes into detail on the various names Nohime received during her lifetime.
First, she is known as Kicho and the narrator explains it was a beautiful name for her. Later her name changes to Kocho according to the Bukoyawa. Kocho was known as image of a beautiful butterfly. While living at Sagiyama Castle before her marriage to Nobunaga, she was known as Sagayima-dono. When she married Nobunaga she was known as No/Nohime, the Princess of Mino. Then while living at Azuchi Castle, she was known as Azuchi-dono. Last was her Buddhist Yokain.
The video is short, but informative.
Nobunaga no tame!
