Another area of confusion is the mixed use of [[wp:Standard Mandarin|Mandarin]] and [[wp:Canton dialect|Cantonese]] spellings in his name. Huang Lee hails from Hong Kong, where the Cantonese dialect is more commonly used, but "[[wp:Huang (surname)|Huang]]" is written in a Romanized Mandarin spelling when "[[wp:Wong (surname)|Wong]]" or "[[wp:Wang (surname)|Wang]]" should be used; "[[wp:Lee (surname)|Lee]]" is correctly Cantonese, while the Mandarin equivalent is "[[wp:Li (surname)|Li]]". This means Huang Lee's name may also been purely referred to as "Wong Lee" or "Wang Lee" in Cantonese and "Huang Li" in Mandarin. His early background in Hong Kong remains largely unexplained.

Yet another area of confusion is the order of his name; Kenny Wu Lee is Huang ''Lee''s father's brother, thus they would have the same surname. However, only the name ''Lee'' appears to be their common name. This also applies to Hsin and Chan Jaoming. Thus, the correct names of the four would be Lee Huang, Kenny Lee, Jaoming Hsin and Jaoming Chan.
