"And Cho does NOT mean butterfly. Based on my knowledge of reading
both Japanese version and the Chinese version, where both listed Cho
Chang as Chinese, Cho means "Autumn". Chang does not have a real
meaning but it is one the top 3 used Chinese last name. "
My understanding of Chinese naming is that the first name is the surname,
and the second name, the personal name. For Cho Chang, her family or
surname would be "Cho," and her personal, individual name would be
Chang.
