Dear I.Nagy,
If we take all the On-translations after each other, is Yukoshin as an artist (Go) name also a possibility??
Greetings,
Martin.

Dear Martin,
Theoretically it is possible, but it goes against the fact that neither in Japan nor in China can we find art-names (Go) with 友光 character combination. In Japan 友 Tomo and 友光 Tomomitsu are well established family names.
With regards,
I.Nagy
