I added it as an "also known as." I'm not 100% certain the best way to change a name, I'll check with Dan (one option is to create a new person and merge them).

Thanks. These traditional Japanese entertainer artists are kind of tricky because they change their names every few decades, and those names are reuses of past actors' names. I don't know if the encyclopedia allows it, but I suggest you keep the generational name suffixes (II,III,IV, etc) to make it less confusing.
