  • His name basically means "to watch/gaze" and "to hope" in Chinese,[1] but it has additional meanings due to the character's symbolism with the moon. Wangri (Hanzi: 望日) refers to the fifteenth day in the Chinese calendar, the day of the full moon, and when it combines with shuo (Chongyue's former name), it becomes the shuowangyue (Hanzi: 朔望月), or the synodic month.
