In either way, the names of Anchin and Kiyohime did not appear yet, and Anchin first appeared in "Genko shakusho" (History of Buddhism of the Genko era), and Kiyohime first appeared in Joruri (ballad drama), 'Dojo-ji genzai uroko' (the scales of Dojo-ji Temple, a modern version) (first staged in 1742).
いずれにせよ安珍・清姫の名はまだ見られず、安珍の名の初出は『元亨釈書』、清姫の名の初出は操浄瑠璃「道成寺現在蛇鱗」（寛保2年（1742年）初演）とされる。
