"Zhang Liao"???[]

I just watched both episodes with Iron Face in it, and he was never called "Zhang Liao" once in ither episode, he always went by the name "Chouryou". Does anyone know where this name came from? I think a major sweep and renaming may need to be done. Zalbaag (talk) 00:58, December 8, 2015 (UTC)

I think its mostly based on the kanji; the name is pronounced "Chou ryou" but the "Zhang Liao" is due to the same kanji being for the Han general. (Admittedly "Chou Ryou" works better since it connects with ease to his son being "Tenkasei Ryou"; but this is a context of "Chinese name" vs "Japanese name") *StrangerAtaru (talk) 02:24, December 8, 2015 (UTC)
It's cool it matches like that, but if Zhang Liao is just based on the kanji and Chouryou is the name used in the show, shouldn't Chouryou's kanji matching Zhang Liao's be a note, rather than the name the article and the links go by? Zalbaag (talk) 02:59, December 8, 2015 (UTC)
If they say Chouryou in the show, that's the name. Zhang Liao was most likely chosen as the page name by someone who hasn't seen the show. Who, by the way, was an anonymous contributor, seven years ago.  Digifiend  Talk  PR/SS  KR  MH  Toku  JD  Garo  TH  CG  UM  Logos  CLG  DW  03:40, 8/12/2015
