I'm not sure why Jing Lusi's name is different from the expected order.

Jing Lusi did excellent voice (and video? or is it CGI? sure looks like her!) acting for the recently released Grey Goo game. I think this is notable information, but I don't know where to put it. Please help :) 72.229.52.52 (talk) 19:41, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Name in Chinese

[edit]

I've added Jing Lusi's Chinese name, 陆思敬 (lù sī jìng), to her article (sources: this profile, this BBC News video, our interlang article), but the way she transliterated it is odd, so I thought I would mention it here:

She is referred to by English-language media as "Jing Lusi", which in Western name order means her given name is Jìng and her surname is Lùsī. Converting this to Chinese name order (reverse of Western), her name would be Lùsī Jìng. This word order matches the name I listed at the start.

However, Lùsī (陆思) is not a Chinese surname. There are very few multi-word surnames, and this is not one of them. () by itself is a surname, though. If that is her surname, then her Chinese name should be broken up as Lù Sījìng, not Lùsī Jìng, meaning her Westernized name should be "Sijing Lu".

I'm not sure why Jing Lusi's name is different from the expected order. Maybe a mistake in paperwork when coming to the UK (common by officials spelling foreign names), or deliberately to make her first name easier to pronounce? Or I could be completely wrong about all of this and her surname really is Lùsī. Iiii I I I (talk) 09:33, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
