Seppuku is Japanese for ritual suicide. I thought, What a cute name for a coat.

Meaning of the quote

The quote is saying that the word "seppuku," which means a traditional Japanese ritual where someone takes their own life, sounds like a cute name for a coat. The actress finds it interesting that a word for something so serious and sad-sounding can be used to describe something as ordinary as a piece of clothing.
