'''Naminé''' is the [[Nobody]] of [[Kairi]]. She first appears in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'', and plays a minor role in ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.

Naminé was born when [[Sora]] stabbed himself with [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness|Ansem]]'s artificial [[Keyblade of heart|Keyblade]] in order to return Kairi's [[heart]] to her [[body]]. This made Naminé a very odd Nobody, born from Kairi's heart and Sora's body and [[soul]]. Kairi's own body never became a Nobody because her heart lacked [[darkness]] (since she was one of the [[Princesses of Heart]]), so her body and soul were never able to leave the [[Realm of Light]] and thus Kairi was in a comatose state until she regained her heart.

 

As a result, Naminé was born without Kairi's memories, only furthering her status as an unusual entity. Due to the fact that Naminé is formed from Sora's body and soul, she has the power to manipulate his memories as well as the memories of those who are connected to him, prompting several people, even herself, to refer to her as a "witch". [[Ansem the Wise]] stated that Naminé is a highly unusual Nobody, due to possessing neither the body nor the memories that a Nobody is usually made from,<ref>'''''[[Secret Ansem Report 9]]''''': "With no darkness in her heart, Kairi produced no Heartless, and instead of vanishing, her body remained in the realm of light. In other words, both the Nobody called Naminé and the Heartless—proof of a lost heart—are extremely unstable beings who lack the bodies needed to produce a Nobody. Therefore, they also lack Kairi's memories. One reason for this maybe that Kairi's heart did not return to the darkness when separated from her body, but rather migrated to another vessel...deep within Sora's heart. [...] She is a "non-being" in the truest sense of the word; having not even become a Nobody and with nowhere left to go, she is but the most fleeting of shadows."</ref><ref>'''''[[Secret Ansem Report 10]]''''': "Naminé. As I have written before, she is a most unusual being. Born of the same process as a Nobody, but lacking virtually all the elements of a Nobody. Perhaps she continues drawing in hopes of capturing that which she lacks: the memories of others, especially Sora. I have arrived at a hypothesis. I believe that Naminé was born as a special type of Nobody when Sora attacked himself with the Keyblade, causing his and Kairi's hearts to leave their bodies simultaneously. Naminé emerged as Kairi's Nobody...but the body and soul necessary to exist as a Nobody belonged to Sora."</ref> but later concludes that Naminé is similar to [[Roxas]] and must be made from Sora's body and soul as well.<ref>'''''[[Secret Ansem Report 12]]''''': "Apart from Naminé, Nobodies retain their memories of their time as humans, but Sora's Nobody, Roxas, has lost Sora's memories. This is likely because Sora's time as a Heartless was short, having recovered his heart and returned to his human form soon after leaving behind Roxas, his Nobody. It would seem Roxas is much like Naminé. Naminé is Kairi's Nobody, but came into being via Sora's body and soul. Likewise, Roxas is Sora's Nobody, but was left behind because Sora's Heartless regained human form using Kairi's heart instead of his own."</ref>

===Before ''Kingdom Hearts 0.2 Birth by Sleep -A fragmentary passage-''===

Naminé finds her way to [[Lingering Will]] by following Sora's heart. Lingering Will wonders who she is and she explains that she is a witch who can manipulate memory. She also says she knows that he is bound by two sets of memories: [[Terra]]'s and [[Xehanort]]'s. She claims he will cross paths with [[Aqua]] and he must guide her so that she will not be confused by the darkness. Naminé tells him to keep fighting and never give up. Lingering Will calls Aqua's and Ventus's names.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Concert -First Breath-]]'''''</ref><!--http://www.khinsider.com/news/SPOILERS-A-special-conversation-before-KINGDOM-HEARTS-0-2-Birth-By-Sleep-revealed-during-First-Breath-concert-6805 Translation via aibo_ac7 and Goldpanner-->

 

===''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''===

[[File:Marluxia's Graceful Blade 02 KHRECOM.png|thumb|left|Marluxia holds Naminé captive.]]

A captive of the Organization, Naminé resides in the upper floors of Castle Oblivion. When Sora enters the castle, Naminé is forced by [[Marluxia]] and [[Larxene]] to manipulate Sora's memories, slowly causing Sora, [[Donald Duck]] and [[Goofy]] to forget many friends and events prior to their arrival. She also uses her influence to cause Sora to believe that she is a very important friend that he has forgotten. Marluxia forces Naminé to undergo this manipulation so that Sora may become a puppet under Naminé's, and therefore Marluxia's control, allowing Marluxia to overthrow [[Xemnas]].

 

Naminé replaces Kairi with herself in Sora's memories, and Kairi's [[Wayfinder|lucky charm]] now takes on a new form to reflect the replacement. Sora "remembers" a childhood memory in which he promised to protect Naminé during a meteor shower.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''''', '''Sora:''' "There's a special memory that goes with this. One night, when Naminé and I were little, there was this meteor shower. Naminé started crying. She said, 'What if a shooting star hits the islands?' So I said, 'If a shooting star comes this way, I'll hit it right back into outer space!' I was swinging this toy sword around the whole time. Naminé just smiled and said, 'Thanks.' And then she gave me this. [...] Yeah. So I promised her... From now on, I'll bring you good luck. I'll keep you safe. But then one day, Naminé left the islands...and I forgot about her all this time. I really let her down..."</ref> Motivated by these false memories, Sora continues to ascend Castle Oblivion where he realizes that Naminé is being held against her will by Organization XIII.  

Meanwhile, Naminé is also forced to implant false memories into the [[Riku Replica]], so that he thinks he is the real [[Riku]]. However, like Sora, he is led to believe that Naminé is his long lost friend and that he made the same promise to Naminé.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''''', '''Replica Riku:''' "There was a meteor shower...this one night when she and I were little... Naminé got scared and said, 'What if a shooting star hits the islands?' So I told her: 'If a shooting star comes this way, I will protect you!' / '''Sora:''' "You made a promise! With a toy sword!" / '''Replica Riku:''' "What... How do you know about that?"</ref> Replica Riku even has an identical lucky charm, though this one is only a transformed card.

[[File:The Girl That Never Was 02 KHRECOM.png|thumb|Naminé's memory tells Sora she wishes she could meet him under different circumstances.]]

Naminé's conscience eventually helps her to overcome the loneliness and fear that caused her to go along with Marluxia's scheme, and she reveals herself to Sora after being released by [[Axel]]. She appears to Sora in the memory version of [[Destiny Islands]] as he is conversing with the memory version of herself. Naminé tells him that she had never been in his heart, despite what his memories show him, and urges him to remember Kairi, whose existence is special to him.

Back in the castle halls, Sora confronts Naminé. The Riku Replica arrives, but Sora defeats him. When Sora tries to help him, the [[replica]] catches Sora off-guard and strikes him. He is about to move in for the finishing blow, but Naminé quickly shatters the replica's false memories, knocking him unconscious. Larxene then arrives to finish Sora off, but she is defeated when she makes the mistake of harming Naminé and angering Sora.

After the battle, Naminé explains her actions and motivations to Sora, and expresses deep regret, thinking that he will not forgive her. Much to her surprise, Sora is completely forgiving, though he does admit that he isn't happy about what she has done. When asked if anything can be done to restore their old memories, Naminé says she can do so, but only after they defeat the lord of Castle Oblivion, Marluxia, on the 13th floor. Sora goes to fight him, leaving the replica under her care. However, as she is watching over the replica, Marluxia arrives and kidnaps her.

Marluxia puts Naminé to good use when Axel confronts him about his plot to overthrow the Organization. Marluxia uses Naminé as a human shield, but Axel is undeterred, saying that he will go through her to defeat him, much to her shock. Luckily, she is saved from this by the timely intervention of Sora, though he fails to stop Marluxia from escaping with her. Sora then defeats Axel and moves on to Marluxia, who orders Naminé to completely shatter Sora's memories and destroy his heart, when he sees that in his current state, Sora is of no use to him. Even so, Marluxia believes he can eventually restore Sora and make him his puppet. Remembering Sora's kindness towards her, Naminé refuses the order. When Marluxia threatens to defeat her, Sora urges Naminé to erase his memory and destroy his heart, if it means saving her from Marluxia's wrath. In the end, she is saved by the Riku Replica's arrival. Sora, Donald, and Goofy then initiate one final battle against Marluxia, as the replica guards Naminé.

After Marluxia is defeated and the replica departs, Naminé presents Sora with the choice of either keeping his memories of the events that took place in Castle Oblivion and abandoning his old memories, or regaining those and losing the ones of Castle Oblivion. She understands when he ultimately chooses the latter, and leads Sora, Donald, and Goofy to a chamber housing [[pod]]s. They can sleep in these while Naminé restores their original memories. Though it will take some time, she assures Sora that he will eventually become his former self. Sora also believes that Naminé will always be in his heart, forgotten but not lost. Thus, the two promise to meet again as real friends, and then Sora falls into a deep slumber.

Naminé also aids Riku in his efforts to conquer the darkness within his heart. When [[Zexion]] overwhelms him with [[light]], Naminé takes on Kairi's form to convince him that he should accept the darkness as well as the light within himself. Thus, he is given the strength to move through the light and strike down Zexion, who barely escapes.

[[File:Riku's Choice 01 KHRECOM.png|thumb|Naminé explains to Riku what has happened to Sora.]]

Naminé and Riku meet again later at the urging of [[Ansem the Wise|DiZ]] and she reveals Sora's comatose condition to him. She offers Riku a chance to seal away the darkness in his heart, though he, too, would have to sleep like Sora. Riku ultimately chooses to face the darkness on his own, and Naminé sees that he has made the right choice. He also reveals his suspicion that it was Naminé who appeared to him as Kairi, which she confirms, although she is surprised that he realized. Riku notes that the two "smell the same", before going off to face his darkness. Knowing that Castle Oblivion is still under the control of the Organization, DiZ convinces her to move Sora, Donald, and Goofy to his laboratory in [[Twilight Town]] for safekeeping.

Naminé, with the help of Riku and DiZ, tries to restore Sora's, Donald's, and Goofy's memories while they sleep in pods at Twilight Town's Old Mansion. However, the process is taking longer than expected due to some of Sora's "leaked memories" gaining sentience through one of [[Xemnas]]'s experiments. The individual created from these memories is later named [[Xion]]. Naminé is the one who reveals to DiZ that Xion's existence may halt Sora's awakening.

Naminé is visited by Riku again in Twilight Town. Naminé was not sure if she would meet Riku again, as they originally met when Sora was sleeping in Castle Oblivion. She discusses her difficulty trying to help recover Sora's memories, saying that both Roxas and Xion need to disappear in order to wake Sora up. Eventually, Sora's recovery comes to a complete standstill, and Naminé is saddened when Riku volunteers to do what needs to be done.

 

Later, Naminé is visited by Xion. Naminé tells her that Xion is Kairi as Sora remembers her, and that Xion is a being connected through the memories of other people, and that if Xion decides to rejoin with Sora, she will be forgotten. Naminé is asked by Xion to watch over Roxas. DiZ arrives to inform Naminé that the Organization (i.e. Axel) has found them and Naminé orders Xion to stay, but Xion leaves to go take care of the issue herself.

Naminé is working with DiZ and Riku (who has taken on the appearance of [[Ansem, Seeker of Darkness]] in order to use the power of darkness) to restore Sora's memories. Because Sora is incomplete, Naminé is having difficulty chaining his memories back together. To help with this process, his Nobody, [[Roxas]], an ex-member of Organization XIII, is retrieved by Riku and placed into [[The Other Twilight Town]], where he lives until the time comes for him to join with Sora.

Naminé desires to see Roxas, having developed a connection with him, as his situation is quite similar to her own in Castle Oblivion, and she enters the digital Twilight Town herself. There, she meets him and acts as a guide for him when he is attacked by Nobodies. After Roxas's [[Dive to the Heart]], Naminé meets with him again, saving him from the darkness that bursts forth from the [[Twilight Thorn]]. She plans to reveal the truth of who he really is, but is stopped by Riku, claiming that it is better if Roxas did not know the truth. Even so, their encounter puts Roxas into contact with Kairi the next day, when Kairi manages to remember Sora's name.

On the following day, Naminé and Roxas meet again, and she reveals to Roxas his status as a Nobody, his relationship with [[Axel]], and his connection to Sora. Upon seeing Roxas's reaction to the revelations, she apologizes and remarks that "some things really are better left unsaid".

On the final day of Roxas's time as an independent entity, they meet once more, and Naminé sheds light on Organization XIII, and their search for [[Kingdom Hearts]]. However, this Naminé is made from data and is deleted before she can reveal any more. The true Naminé then appears, and tells Roxas that he will not disappear when he fuses with Sora, and will instead be whole. DiZ quickly tries to stop her, but before she is taken away, she promises him that they will meet again, even if they don't recognize each other. Despite Roxas's pleas for them to let her go, Naminé, DiZ, and Riku disappear into a [[Corridors of Darkness]].

Having no further use for Naminé with Sora's memory restored, DiZ orders Riku to destroy her. However, Riku, already angry and bitter towards DiZ for his selfish intentions, instead leaves her in the care of Axel, returning the favor she did for him at Castle Oblivion. At Sunset Hill, Naminé makes a speech to Axel, stating that even Nobodies have people who are dear to them, which strangely moves Axel. As Riku thanks them both, Naminé is bewildered, but later expresses her gratitude before entering the Corridor of Darkness opened by Axel, as the latter followed suit.<ref>This is seen as an exclusive clip that appears only in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]''.</ref>

After the first battle with the Kingdom Hearts-powered Xemnas, Naminé appears another time, though in a transparent state, and opens up a pathway to Destiny Islands. Apparently, only Sora, Riku, and Kairi can see her, as [[Mickey Mouse|Mickey]], Donald, and Goofy have no idea where the pathway came from (however, the French version alters this; when the Corridor to Destiny Islands is opened, Donald asks, "Who was that girl?" to which Mickey replies, "I'll explain to you some other time." Having said thus, Mickey, Donald and Goofy enter the corridor, leaving Sora, Riku, and Kairi behind to speak to Roxas and Naminé).

Kairi thanks Naminé for her help. Naminé then tells Sora that they meet again, though he does not understand what she means due to his loss of memories of Castle Oblivion. At that moment, Roxas projects himself from Sora, and the two Nobodies meet once more, just as Naminé promised. The two realize that not all Nobodies are doomed to fade into the darkness, as they were able to meet their original selves, and though they are no longer independent, they will live on through Sora and Kairi. Sora and Kairi promise their counterparts that they will be together every day, and without regret, Naminé finally joins with Kairi, completing her.

[[File:Hidden Memories 01 KHREC.png|thumb|left|Data-Naminé in ''Kingdom Hearts Re:coded''.]]

A data version of Naminé meets up with [[Data-Sora]] and Mickey in the white room of the digital Castle Oblivion to tell them about [[Terra]], [[Aqua]], and [[Ventus]], as well as Sora's destiny to save them from their suffering along with Axel, Xion, Roxas, and Naminé herself. As a data replica created specifically for this purpose, Naminé fades away after the message is delivered.

[[File:Naminé and Xion 01 KH3D.png|thumb|Naminé appears in front of Sora.]]

When Kairi is slain by the [[Demon Tide]], Naminé's heart remains in [[the Final World]], where Sora finds her as a floating star. She informs Sora that he is being tethered to the realm of the living by Kairi's heart, and assures him that she will be rescued once Kairi is; in response, he reassures Naminé that she has friends who miss her and want her to be revived. Before Sora leaves, Naminé explains that she will try to follow Sora's chain of memories to find Terra's [[Lingering Will]], who she hopes can tip the scale in the guardian's favor. Her plan bears fruit after Sora causes a [[singularity]] and repeats the fatal battle, as the Lingering Will chases off Terra-Xehanort, allowing the [[Guardians of Light]] to squeak out a victory. During its battle with Terra-Xehanort, a future version of Sora speaks with Naminé at his [[Station of Calling]] about their fight. He tells Naminé to return to the world of ocean and sky while he saves Terra.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}}

[[File:Ending 04 KHIII.png|thumb|left|Naminé reunites with Riku in her new body.]]

After the Guardians defeat [[Dark Riku]], Riku Replica's spirit instructs Riku to use the left-behind Replica body to revive Naminé. [[Demyx]] collects the replica, which Riku warns him to deliver with care, as the vessel wasn't empty, but filled with important memories. He brings it to [[Radiant Garden]], where Sora and Kairi help [[Even]], [[Ienzo]], and Ansem the Wise reconstruct Naminé.{{storylink|Kingdom Hearts III Re Mind}} Shortly after Naminé wakes up in the [[Heartless Manufactory]], Riku arrives in a [[Gummi Ship]] to take her to Destiny Islands, where she joins Xion in celebrating the Guardians' victory.

{{-}}

Naminé finishes a drawing of Sora on the paopu tree in the White Room of the [[Old Mansion]] in Twilight Town and says Sora's name.

===''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate''===

In ''{{ssb|Super Smash Bros. Ultimate}}'', Naminé appears in the 2 o'clock Stations in the [[Dive to the Heart]] sections of the {{ssb|Hollow Bastion}} stage.

As the Nobody of Kairi, Naminé bears a resemblance to her, though, like, with Roxas and Sora, this resemblance is a bit more subdued than most. Naminé shares Kairi's blue eyes and general body structure. Naminé has blond hair, which is slightly longer than Kairi's, that she drapes across her right shoulder, rosy cheeks, and pale, pink lips. She wears a white dress that ends at her thighs in an embroidered lace pattern and light blue sandals decorated with yellow flowers. She remains virtually unchanged from her appearance in ''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]'' to ''Kingdom Hearts II''. She looks more mature and taller in ''Kingdom Hearts II'', which results in the dress reaching to about mid-thigh as opposed to just above her knee as it was in ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories''.

 

The first part of her name, "{{nihongo|nami|波}}" means "ocean wave" in Japanese, similar to Kairi's name, which is derived from the word for "{{nihongo|sea|海|Kai}}". Her name can also be translated to "sound of the wave" in Japanese, since the character "{{nihongo|音|oto}}" can be pronounced as "ne". Alternatively, her name can mean "born from the wave", because of the French "né" at the end of her name ("né" is the past participle of the verb "[[Wiktionary:naître|naître]]", which means "to be born") as a reference to her birth from Kairi and Sora, as a wave can come from air and sea. However, this may have just been added in the English releases to ensure that her name was pronounced the same way it was intended in the Japanese original.

Due to the unusual nature of her birth, Naminé was born without memories. As a result, she had no basis of free will, and simply followed the orders of whoever was close to her, effectively making her very submissive, quiet, and fragile in personality. However, as revealed in ''Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance'', Nobodies like her could grow new hearts, which is why she is able to express true emotions.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance]]''''', '''Xemnas:''' "A heart is never lost for good. There may have been variances in our dispositions, but a number of us unquestionably showed signs of a burgeoning replacement. Once born, the heart can also be nurtured. Our experiments creating Heartless were attempts to control the mind and convince it to renounce its sense of self. But understand, one can banish the heart from the body, but the body will try to replace it the first chance it gets, for as many times as it takes."</ref> During her time in Castle Oblivion, Naminé begins exhibiting the capacity for emotions. In fact, Naminé later reveals that she agreed to use her powers to draw Sora to Castle Oblivion and manipulate his memories was due to a sense of loneliness she felt from being isolated from others for so long.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''''', '''Naminé:''' "I was alone for so long. I couldn't bear it anymore... So I beckoned your heart to lead you here. And I'm so glad you found me."</ref>

Upon realizing her misdeeds, Naminé becomes guilt-ridden and eventually rebels against her captors to help Sora and his friends. She displays genuine remorse for what she has done to Sora and co., and willingly puts herself in harm's way to protect Sora from Larxene. Her determination and desire to take responsibility for her actions also led her to defy Marluxia's order to destroy Sora's heart, in spite of being threatened by the former.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories]]''''', '''Naminé:''' "No. Sora forgave me even though I deceived him. I could never break his heart! I don't care what you do to me. I won't hurt Sora!"</ref> When Naminé bids farewell to Sora when he enters the pod, she sheds tears and expresses happiness of their promise to meet again one day. By the end of ''Kingdom Hearts Chain of Memories'', Naminé has proven herself to be a kind, compassionate, and driven individual. By ''Kingdom Hearts II'', Naminé has matured greatly, and now acts independently without hesitation. She demonstrates her willingness in assisting Roxas in spite of DiZ's orders, and rescues Kairi when she is captured by Organization XIII.

Unlike [[Roxas]], Naminé had spent the majority of her life in a solitary manner. The only social contact she had was with her captors, [[Organization XIII|the Organization]], along with her collaborators in restoring Sora's memory: [[DiZ]] and [[Riku]]. As a result, Naminé did not forge any strong bonds with people and was quite resigned to her fate as simply being a part of Kairi. When she met Sora in [[The Final World]], she said it was only Roxas that everyone missed; she considered herself to be no-one important. However, Sora encourages her to live as her own person; this is even further backed up by the [[Riku Replica]], who gave up the chance to have a new body for the sake of leaving a blank [[replica]] for Naminé's heart.

Unlike other humanoid Nobodies, Naminé's talents do not lie in battle, but in the ability to control memories, making her a "witch". The ability comes from the fact that she is formed from Sora's soul and body, rather than Kairi's. Because of this connection, Naminé can move around the "links" of his memories that are located within his heart to her liking, as well as the ones of those who are connected to Sora. She can even sever them completely, turning the victim into little more than an empty shell, such as the Riku Replica when he threatened to defeat Sora. In addition, she can create objects affected by the new memories, evidenced by turning a card into a good luck charm for the Riku Replica and altering the appearance of Kairi's [[Wayfinder|Lucky Charm]] to resemble that of a [[paopu fruit]].

 

 

 

 

In a similiar vein, Naminé is unable to retain any memories of Xion once she returns to Sora, due to Xion's very existence being built on Sora's memories, in exchange for the replica not having of her own to begin with.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Naminé:''' "Back to Sora? If you return your memories to him, you'll disappear. And since everything about you was built on those memories...no one will remember you when you're gone. There won't be any "you" to remember. I can't save you, Xion—even a memory of you."</ref><ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX]]''''', '''Naminé:''' "So you're going back to Sora? If you return your memories to him, then you will disappear. In exchange for not having your own memory, you're connected through other's memories. So when you disappear, no one will remember you. There won't be any "you" to remember. For all the powers I possess, I can't keep even one piece of the memory called "you" connected."</ref>

While not directly stated, Naminé's powers do not affect those who only know of Sora and are not close to him; Xemnas<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Roxas:''' "Who is Sora?" / '''Xemnas:''' "The connection. He is what makes you and Xion a part of each other's lives."</ref> and Axel<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Roxas:''' "You've changed, Axel; you're more cheerful." / '''Axel:''' "Guess he rubbed off on me."</ref> were able to remember Sora. At the same time, she seems able to preserve some memory of him in selected individuals, as Mickey also remembers him.<ref>'''''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]''''', '''Mickey:''' "And Sora... Did something go wrong with fixing all his memories?"</ref>

Naminé can sew in the manga, as shown when she fixed up Axel's coat, though he remarks that she has no talent for it.{{storylink|Meeting of the Lonely Hearts Club}}
