== Trivia ==
* Sir Isaac's first name "Isaac" means "He will laugh" in Hebrew.
* Sir Isaac's last name, "Westcott", comes from William Wynn Westcott, one of the three founders of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn which was one of the orders of the Hermetic Qabalah.
* Qemetiel is written as furigana rather than above any kanji.
* Westcott's Spirit number is 0, which reflects his status as the Second Spirit of Origin. The number is derived from his middle name Ray being pronounced the same as the kanji for 0.
* Tachibana briefly considered naming him Albert instead of Isaac, as Albert contains the katakana for the Chinese pronunciation of the number 2, which would showcase Westcott's possession of <Beelzebub>.
