It's being perceived as sounding like the stereotype of how a Japanese person would say "Link You".

As someone living in a foreign country I have ocassionally dealt with racist behaviour so I'm aware of the pain it can cause.

I have to say that the thought of the name being racist never entered my head - I was just looking for a cool name and though rinnku looked good and would be easy to remember.

I apologize from the bottom of my heart for any pain I have caused.
