Vocals: 京 (Kyo)

Names

  • Last name: 西村 (にしむら, Nishimura)
    • Kyo introduces himself as 西村 (Nishimura) in 灰色の銀貨 (Haiiro no Ginka) #11 and says that the Nishimura Bakery in Kyoto isn't his family's bakery. He also wrote his last name in hiragana in DRAGON FLY.
  • First name: 宏則 (ひろのり, Hironori)
    • Kyo's first name was confirmed by a junior high-school book that was sold online in 2021.
  • Stage name: 京 (きょう, Kyo)
    • Former: 殀磨 (よま, Yoma)
      • His stage name in 月蝕 (Gesshoku) and Viṣṇu. A signature confirms the kanji.
  • Aliases:

    • Majer Zemeckis (マイエル・ゼメキス)

      • Allegedly, there's also a porn director with this name. However, this is only partially true, the director's actual name is 村西とおる (Muranishi Tooru), with the kanji of the last name switched around.
    • 西村 京太郎 (Nishimura Kyōtarō)
      • Kyōtarō Nishimura (died March 3, 2022) was a Japanese writer of mystery stories. Kyo wrote this name in a photobook, but crossed out the 太郎 (tarō).

      • This version appeared in a German newspaper in 2005, when the band held their first live in Germany. It's unknown where the author found it.
    • 妖磨 (Yoma)
      • This name is mistakenly used on the 月蝕 (Gesshoku) VHS.

      • Misreading of the first kanji in 殀磨 (Yoma).
