Crypton also provided KEI with Miku's detailed concepts, however, Crypton said it was not easy to explain what a "Vocaloid" was to him.

When KEI illustrated Miku, he was given a color scheme to work with (based on the YAMAHA synthesizers' signature blue-green colour) and was asked to draw Miku as an android. Her name in Chinese is "Chūyīn Wèilái" (Simplified Chinese: 初音未来 Traditional Chinese: 初音未來). Her codename of "CV01" means "Character Voice 01". It thus means "the first sound from the future." Her name was based on her concept of that when a sound is first spoken. The name was chosen by combining hatsu ( 初, "first"), ne ( 音, "sound"), and Miku ( 未来, a personal name that shares its spelling with the word for "future"). Her very first concept was of a bilingual Japanese and English vocal, but this later became the concept of Megurine Luka.

Crypton had the idea to release Miku as "an android diva in the near-future world where songs are lost."
