A common myth within the fandom is that KAITO was intended to be middle aged, which may have generated from this fan comic. In one doujinshi, Maker Hikōshiki Hatsune Mix he is portrayed as a middle aged man by KEI, but it should be noted that what the artist depicts in the comic is not official, as he mentioned in a magazine interview. This led to the updates taking a totally different course of development in comparison to the Appends of Miku, Len, Rin and Luka. This was also emphasized during the development of the V3 vocal banks, with Wat stating how different the intention of the CV series was to the intention of KAITO and MEIKO. Like MEIKO, he was not made with the aim of giving character or personality to vocal synthesis software. Crypton did not set his character and profile except for his package design. The illustration was done by Takashi Kawasaki. Officially, the character is known as "KAITO" he has no family name or surname. Due to its common sighting, it is still incorrectly used by fans as his surname even as of the VOCALOID4 engine's release. "Shion" was a fan-created term used to refer to him during 2007-2009. KAITO is often misnamed "Kaito Shion" or "Shion Kaito", particularly by overseas fans. KAITO's codename was "TARO" it likely came from "Yamada Tarō (山田太郎)", a placeholder name for male characters and the Japanese equivalent to "John Smith". One of the reasons why his name "KAITO" was selected was because it would be easy for non-Japanese speakers to pronounce, and it looked fitting with the name "MEIKO" when they were put next to one another. The product's name was invited to be chosen by the public, and "KAITO" was selected from among the applicants, which was Shu-tP's offered idea.
