Part of the assignment when Bethany was writing The Lotus Princess was to include items that were authentically Chinese. So, she researched the names so that they would match the personality of the characters. According to this site on Chinese name meanings:
Mei Lien means Beautiful Lotus (Mei means Beautiful, and Lien also means Daughter of the Sun)
He Ping means Peace
Ju Long means Powerful, Gigantic Dragon
Huang Fu means Rich Future
