Pretty sure that you have been mixing up Eastern order and Western order here. Most importantly, Choe Myeonghwa is half-Korean and Hao Huiyu is of Chinese descent.

To say it softly, I would have figured you would know name orders by now.

Her name is written as セーラ, which indicates it's most likely supposed to mean Sarah.

怜 does not have the meaning of time in Japanese, and I'm pretty sure it does not have such meaning in any language.

That ability related with her "negating" skill too, because if Shizu can control the wall, then Shizu can control which tile the player draw, no matter what supernatural ability they have.

And for your information, dice in mahjong give major factor on the wall arrangement...

For 鴨 (Kamo), that's referring to Shizu character I think
Surname is useless in analysis.
