  1. So I decided to try and find as many Kanji as possible that could be used to spell Kinue.
  2.  
  3. きぬえ - Kinue in Hiragana
  4. キヌエ - Kinue in Katakana
  5. 絹恵 - Kinu + e
  6. 絹枝 - Kinu + e
  7. 絹江 - Kinu + e
  8.  
  9. 絹 = silk
  10. 恵 = grace/mercy/benevolence
  11. 枝 = branch/bough/twig/sprig
  12. 江 = inlet
  13. 衣 - Kinu = clothes/robe/gown/batter coating/bread-crumb coating
  14. 着 - Ki (when used with Kinu) = put on/wear/dress/clothe/cover
  15. 布 - Kinu = cloth
  16. 縫 - Nu = sew/stitch
  17. 濡 - Nu = get wet/drenched/damp
  18. 鵺 - Nue = creature of Japanese folklore
  19.  
  20. And apparently, the sentence 濡れ衣を着せられる means "To be wrongly accused". I'm using
  21. http://www.saiga-jp.com/
  22. and I just came across that example sentence here
  23. http://www.saiga-jp.com/cgi-bin/dic.cgi?m=search&sc=0&f=0&j=%E6%BF%A1
  24. I think it's really interesting that the three Kanji used in that sentence are used in "Kinue".
