Chinese Kana fans are calling her "汤莉婷" (Tang Li Ting) on Baidu forum, literally every time they mention her. I decided to find out why and this is the apparent reason
A random company misused Kana's photo and labeled her as their spokesperson, gave her a new name: "汤莉婷" (Tang Li Ting) and even created a signature!! I can't stop laughing!
"汤莉婷" has since become Kana's unofficial nickname in China.
