Osamu Aimi-Chopra. This seems to be a misreading of the font, where the lowercase ls and is are VERY similar, even in HD. Plus "Aimi" is an actual Japanese name, and the BBC website supports the spelling.

Talk about it here.

Osamu Aimi-Chopra was a human military conscript in the 38th century assigned to a rescue team sent to investigate why all contact had been lost with Le Verrier space station in orbit of Neptune. Unlike his colleagues, Chopra was vehemently anti-Morpheus, a process wired into sleep pods that was widely used to prevent the need for a humanoid to sleep and developed by Gagan Rassmussen. Chopra believed that the Morpheus technology gave too much power to corporations over their workforces and took away the right to natural sleep. With the exposure of the dangerous side effects of using the Morpheus pods over the long term in the form of the Sandmen that consumed the crew of Le Verrier station, Chopra felt in some way vindicated for his hostility to the technology.

Chopra was the object of affection for the Grunt labeled 474, although Chopra found it infuriating and largely thought of it as expendable. However, his attitude towards 474 was dramatically altered when the Grunt sacrificed its life in a dangerous situation on the station to save his. However, this was not enough to prevent Chopra from meeting his end at the hands of the Sandmen. (TV: Sleep No More)
