The comments I've read say that 'Kami' (the name that seems to have been adopted by some, at least in the English-speaking fandom) is actually being used as a title of sorts, rather than a name.

Any thoughts/clarification from those of you knowledgeable about Japanese?
No, it's not a title. Kami is her name. It's been used in conjunction with honorifics.

(Maka's mother is Japanese)
