What that web page has doesn't even sound right. It feels to me like they're just making it up since they don't show what the name itself is in Chinese characters. But, maybe they're talking about one of the other dialects pronouncing 金子 ... "Jinji" is how it sounds in Mandarin, "Gumji" in Cantonese and "Geumja" in Korean...

Maybe... Genji is the real Kinzo and Kinzo was merely the Butler! Or Battler! Genzotler Theory...
