For example, the previous emperor is usually called [[Hirohito]] in English, but after his death he was renamed ''Shōwa Tennō'' and is now only called by this name in Japanese. However, when he was in power, he was never called Hirohito or ''Shōwa Tennō'' in Japanese. Rather, he was simply called ''Tennō Heika'' (meaning "His Majesty the Emperor"). | For example, the previous emperor is usually called [[Hirohito]] in English, but after his death he was renamed ''Shōwa Tennō'' and is now only called by this name in Japanese.
