It could be some kind of a joke as regards Japanese people and their names, just like:

\"yamimoto nokamina\" = \"my motorbike has broke down\"

HTH

Make yourself at home/ My home is your home


Explanation:
This expression means that you might do in my home anything you do on your own. Of course, once said, it's supposed the other guy is civilized enough to respect his own home, and thus mine.
