Good morning. Satoshi named himself after a Japanese version of the Sanskrit word sat which is:
Sat (सत्) refers to “eternal, pure, godly. It is used to describe the Absolute Truth. Vrajendra-nandana Śrī Kṛṣṇa is the complete sat entity. It also refers to His abodes, incarnations, devotees, the bona fide guru, etc”. (cf. Glossary page from Śrīmad-Bhagavad-Gītā).
We also have NOSTR plebs who have adopted "pure vida" .
Vida is life but it also comes from a shared root for veda:
1) Veda (वेद).—The sun of the hermit Ayodhadhaumya. (For further details see under Ayodhadhaumya). (See full article at Story of Veda from the Puranic encyclopaedia by Vettam Mani)
2) Veda (वेद).—Introduction. The root 'Vid' in Sanskrit means 'to know'. The books composed of the knowledge of the Āryans, collected and compiled were called the Vedas.
