Her English name, "Sam" is a reference to the "Sam" that comes from "Samurai". "Samurai" is a reference to the Japanese word "samurai", which means "warrior", "warrior-samurai". In modern Japanese, this word is pronounced "samurai". The Japanese word "samurai" can be translated as "warrior", but also as "master of weapons". The idea of the samurai is that he has mastered the art of war, and he is therefore a master of weapons. Therefore, "samurai" can be translated as "master of weapons", or more literally, "master of weapons warrior". This is the meaning that I believe we intended.
Also, "Sam" is a reference to the famous detective Sam Spade from the novel The Maltese Falcon, by Dashiel Hammett. This is because Sam Spade is famous for his catchphrase, "I'm just a guy who does his best".
The 28th of Arhat, Sharak Sanzo (紗烙 三蔵, Sharaku Sanzō), in Saiyuki Reload Blast, is one of the last remaining Sanzo to be accounted for. She is also thus far revealed, the only female Sanzo ever to appear in the Saiyuki Universe. Sharak is charged with protecting the Kouten Scripture, which is traditionally known to govern the Unknown and the Infinite, yet which she says is charged with Defense.
