Monk names
As Chinese Buddhist monks and nuns share the surname Shi, this calligrapher's personal name, along with many other monks', should, according to Hanyu Pinyin rules, be written Huaisu. Yes? Berox 13:22, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

Huai Su → Huaisu – Echoing the opinion above, Huai is not his surname and therefore should not be separated from the rest of his Dharma name. Most other Tang Buddhist monks have their names translated as a mononym on en.wiki: Category:Tang dynasty Buddhist monks. Most Google Books results nowadays use "Huaisu", as can be seen here.
