Thai name of the Siamese prince "Chiêu Thúy" edit

"Hà Tiên suffered from Siamese invasion because Mạc Thiên Tứ hid Chiêu Thúy (the second son of Ekkathat), whom was regarded as a big threat by the Siamese king Taksin." The Thai name of Chiêu Thúy is needed. According to Hà Tiên trấn Hiệp trấn Mạc thị gia phả and Đại Nam liệt truyện tiền biên (vol. 6), the Han tu of "Chiêu Thúy" is "昭翠". Is his Thai name "จุ้ย"? The pronunciation of "จุ้ย" (Chui, t͡ɕuj˥˩) is similar to the Chinese pronunciation of "翠" (cùi, t͡sʰuei˥˩) but far away from its Vietnamese pronunciation (thúy, tʰwi˧˦). Accoring to history records of Thailand, the second son of Ekkathat is "Phra Ong Chao Chai Suthat" ("พระองค์เจ้าชายสุทัศน์" or Kumara (กุมารา)).--El caballero de los Leones (talk) 02:21, 24 October 2018 (UTC)Reply
