Name Origins

The word "sarasa" literally means "cotton print", referring to a type of decorated cloth originating in India 2,000 years ago. The printed or hand-painted cotton fabric (often with a floral or calico pattern) arrived in Japan after the 16th century, where it had an enormous artistic influence, even leading to "Sarasa" becoming a girl's name. There is also a type of goldfish called the "Sarasa Comet" named for the cloth, to which its colour patterns bear resemblance.Template:Refneeded
