Question about Japan

I'm writing a character for a fictional region which has Japanese as it's main language. Now, I'm having trouble coming up with a Japanese name for it. I want it to sound mystical, but also gentle. Based on the rough description I have below, can anyone think of a few Japanese name ideas for it? (no romanization needed): A forest spirit with a huge sprawling round shaped body formed of mossy evergreen branches that have grown thick to allow support. They have arms made of strong, thick trunks and sharp, pointed finger-like structures on their hands. They have a face which is like a canine's skull, as if the rest was lost in the body. Their eyes glow a striking yellow, and reside in the hollow eye sockets of the skull. The skull has no discernable species, but most resembles a wolf's. They have two strong legs made much like their arms, and pointed toes. They have beautiful antlers on their head that spread out in front of them, sometimes even holding the occasional roosting bird. They don't like conflict.
