I don't think we had a definitive source for the romanization of 渡来亜人 as Ado Torai before, but the title of this album seems to confirm it.

Torai Ado => TORAIADO => TRYAD

This reminds me of the movie Zardoz, when you first discover what the name means.

I wonder if 渡来亜人 is even supposed to be a first-name/last-name deal in the first place? It's a pretty unusual name. Maybe it's just ateji for "Tryad," as indicated by the album title.
