At the end of the article, of course, there is a mini-bio, you know? Her real name is •l�è•à. I had a feeling there was a kanji to her first name, she just didn't use it. Same with Suzuki Ami. She always wrote "Ami" in hiragana, but there was a kanji for her name. This isn't uncommon among stars, I think. But there is always the instance where there really is no kanji for the first name, just hiragana or katakana. Still, it's interesting!! I assume her first name is still pronounced "ayumi."
