Siren_(suite_precure), the name is spelled in Katakana as "セイレーン", which to me says "Seiren", which is also closer to how its pronounced in the show.
Additionally, in human form (not a spoiler...), she goes by the name "Elen" (エレン).
I can't find any "official" source for the Siren spelling, so perhaps an alias? We probably don't want to tag her human and cat forms separately.

It's also how it's pronounced in the original Greek- it was warped somewhere on the way from there to English.
As a loanword, it seems to be spelled variously as セイレン and セイレーン - but as サイレン only when referring to klaxons.
For that matter, I think YamiBou's seiren should be Siren too (the inspiration is quite obvious in her case if you're familiar with the story,) but I have fansubber precedent working against me there.

Ok, this is ridiculous.
We need to figure out what we're going to do with her, because having a solo image, for exmample post #977309, with no fewer than THREE character tags is just nuts.
What are we going to call her?
I think we should probably stick to using kurokawa_ellen for all of her humanoid depictions, and start using siren_(suite_precure) as a transformation style tag for her cat form.
We could alias siren_(suite_precure) to kurokawa_ellen like we would for most late name reveals, but due to the presence of Hummy in a lot of her pictures it would make it pretty much impossible to properly search for the handful pictures of her cat form that exist.
