Hey big news I think i disscovered Shang-Chi's last Name. I posted a topic on forums.comicbookresources.com and I got this response... "Yes.... BUT.... Marvel no longer retains the rights to Fu Manchu. They've since had to rename him Zheng Zu, making Fu Manchu only an alias. As far as I'm aware, and I could be wrong, traditional Chinese naming order is: FAMILY + GIVEN. A good example would be actress Bai Ling. Her father's name is Bai Yuxiang. That means Bai is the family name and Ling & Yuxiang are the given names. In Western culture, it's reversed, putting the individual name before the family. Bai Ling's mother's maiden name was Chen Binbin. Here in the states, we'd probably call her Binbin Chen. So, for Shang-Chi.... Zheng Shang-Chi for traditional and Shang-Chi Zheng for Westernized. Either way, technically, I guess his last name would be Zheng. To the OP's question.... Seeing as how Shang-Chi has denounced his father, it's possible that Shang-Chi could be listed in the phone book as NLN, Shang-Chi with NLN standing for "No Last Name", which is legally possible to do." So his last name is probily Zheng.
