To clarify, then, Ma simply named herself after the project, in the book. It's not her inherent name, or indicative of her "true" identity, it's just something she did. The narrative says that they all shared each others memories, and the three souls fused together into one. After that happened, the resulting identity named herself Ma, after Project MA.

Mem Aleph is a title used by the project for the woman who gave birth to the twin gods. "emuei" is just how you would pronounce its initials in Japanese. Mem Aleph is the title, Ma is the initials. I'm pretty sure whichever one is used at the time depends on how it fits in the song.

I'm all for Ma having something to do with HERs, but we already know how she was formed, and how she got her name. I think something else happens to her when she switches bodies with Kayou, because we know Eve had to have seperated from her at some point, but there's no ambiguity on why she has the name, what it means, or what she's composed of while in Elluka's body.
