I need a romaji name for her, she's in Class 1-5 together with Kyon and Haruhi. She sits two desks to the right of Haruhi, and makes her debut in Wandering Shadow. W00t!
If for some reason a picture helps, I've included it as an attachment.
Thanks

Sakanaka would be my guess.
"Chorus Club. Truth is, she wants to be friends with Haruhi."

Yeah, weird. There's an 'a' after every letter, like 'Canada'. Who the pokies does that?

Is she the 'wandering shadow'? As in some quiet background stalker type person? Of Haruhi, going by her picture caption?
Wait, infact, don't tell me. ^^

Heh, you should know when I post the the later 10% ;P
I need to start translating soon. Perhaps a psycho Rena with "I wonder why won't you translate, kana, kana ?" would work...

Hey what's wrong with an A after every letter? It's like.. err how the United States... is.... yeah you get my point anyways.
Plus our name derives from some native group's language! Your just a bunch of united states!

Spoiler! :
Hmm what I saw was Rousseau, the West Highland White Terrier. Haruhi (and apparently, Sakanaka-san's dad) calls him Jean・Jacques; J・J for short. Maybe the Chinese version assigned new names.
I believe it's a reference to a philosopher:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jean_Jacques_Rousseau
Edit: It looks like that's how Rousseau's name is written in Chinese.
