Oyashio Current carries a lot of nutrition for fish, and it plays an important role for raising fish up. (and Japanese people have eaten it)

Therefore I think her name is after Oyashio Current, and Oyashio Current was named so because of this fact.

(I just wanted to join this discussion as a Japanese speaker.)
