Chun li Cosplay name is Mandarin for “spring beauty” (春 chūn, “spring”; 麗 lì, “beautiful”). It is properly romanized as Chunli in pinyin and pronounced “Chuen-lee”, despite westerners commonly pronouncing it as “Chuhn-lee”. The Japanese on’yomi rendering of the name is Shunrei.
Older official sources from the early 90’s indicate Chung was Chun-Li’s surname, although it is worth noting this could very well not be the case anymore. In the live-action Street Fighter movie, Chun-Li was given the surname Zang/Xiang, but Capcom has not officially recognized it. Several Japanese drama CDs and novels created based on the series have given her surname as both “Feng” (楓?) and “Wang” (王?), though these are also not officially recognized by Capcom.
Appearance
Chun-Li’s appearance has differed several times in the Street Fighter series, as well as in official art and cameos she has made in other works. She is known for her very muscular thighs.
