* Phosphora is named after a chemical element called phosphorus, which comes from a Greek word meaning "bearer of light" which suits Phosphora's association with lightning.  
* Phosphora's name comes from the Greek word, ''phosphoros'', meaning "bringer of light", which suits Phosphora's association with lightning.  
* Judging from Phosphora's Japanese name, Ereka, she may be based off [[wikipedia:Electra (Pleiad)|Electra]], who was a [[wikipedia:nymph|nymph]] and one of the seven [[wikipedia:Pleiades (Greek mythology)|Pleiades]]. This could also possibly mean Phosphora is a nymph herself. However, her name can also be based on [[wikipedia:Erica|Erica]], a genus of flowering plants, which is fitting because of both her loyalties lying with the Forces of Nature and because of her own flirtatious personality.
