    Wasn't it in LSF 86 when LXF met a waitress and flirted with her, and asked "what's your name?" and she replied "Xiao Feng" at which point one of his friends (Sikong Zaixing?) almost dies laughing while LXF looks for a hole to hide in?

    I think so (it's been a long time since I watched the '86 series). In LSF III (1978), he wasn't embarrassed at all by the name although Yip Ling made fun of it as "feminine," and that's when he explained the etymology of his name.

    Gu Long likes to use feminine sounding names for his male characters and he especially like the character 'Hua' (Fa in canto).

    I've compiled it here.
