## Nomenclature & Etymology

### Etymology

Her first name, Yuri, is a common Japanese name that means "Lily."

"Luna" is Spanish for 'Moon' and is the Roman equivalent of Selene in Greek Mythology. Her guardian name is the same as Luna's, the talking black cat, but Luna (the cat) is barely mentioned. Instead, Suki guides the outer senshi. Her family name means "of the moon." So, her full name means "Lily of the Moon."

## Appearance

Yuri has blue eyes and long wavy lavender hair that she wears in a half ponytail like Ikuko. She has porcelain skin and a slim figure. She is the 3rd tallest of the Senshi.

The outfit that Yuri wears is a loose fitting tee-shirt with a crescent on the chest with lavender sleeves. She has white shorts on with her lavender jacket usually tied around her waist along with sneakers. When in school, she wears is a blue middle-school sailor uniform. The uniform has a blue sailor collar with three white stripes. She has a red ribbon on the front of her uniform, which she ties her magical brooch to. She has a white blouse with blue sleeve-cuffs that have three white stripes, just like the collar.

Sailor Luna’s standard uniform consists of a white chest-armored leotard with a purple sailor collar that has three white stripes on it, white gloves with three purple arm fittings that reach just below her elbows, white shoulder pads, a purple skirt with a puffy white belt sat above it, along with a blue bow on the chest and at the back. She also sports a pair of purple boots, earrings consisting of golden crescent moons, a purple choker with a crescent moon on it, and her broach.
