Ten-Ten Huang (黄 恬恬, Japanese: Won Tenten, Chinese Pinyin: Huáng Tiántián) (née Miao 苗?, Chinese pinyin: Miáo, Japanese romaji: Myao) (most likely also spelled as Tenten or Tenten Huang) is the mother of Fang Fang Huang and Ling Ling Huang. She is married to Fei-Hong Huang, head of the Huang Family. Her formal name before marriage was Ten-Ten Miao. Her name can be Ten Ten or Ten-Ten.
Appearance[]
She wears traditional Chinese attire with a fan has her hair tied in two buns with flowery bobbles, and wears two tassel earrings. She also wears a red with gold patterns patterned Chinese cheongsam, or qipao kind of top with a collared neck almost like a turtleneck if to be a sweater, and pants. The color of the cheongsam isn't necessarily shown since manga comics are usually in black and white, even Rosario + Vampire. Physically, she is where Ling Ling and Fang Fang (respectively) got their looks from.
Personality[]
She appears to be quite fierce and vicious, taking strong leadership, and being a very professional martial artist. Ten-Ten does not take combat and sparring with her opponent lightly, and is actually very ferocious. Additionally, her personality traits have been passed down onto Fang Fang and Ling Ling.
Manga[]
Ten-Ten was born into the Miao Family, the Huang Family's rival, but fell in love with Fei-Hong Huang, Head of the Huang Family. The Huang and Miao families were able to put their feud aside temporarily, allowing them to get married. Fang Fang describes her as Juliet from Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet". She is a master martial artist. Fang Fang says she is stronger than him.

Trivia[]
- Her name "Huang" means "yellow" in Chinese, as well as meaning yellow in Japanese, and the character for the color being pronounced as "ki" instead, while the pronunciation of her actual name is changed from 'Huang' to 'Won' (ウォン) in Japanese. Additionally, her given name is pronounced Tián-Tián in Chinese, with 'Ten-Ten' (テンテン) literally being just the Japanese on'yomi pronunciation of the Chinese characters. Her name is a repetition of the character 恬 tián, meaning 'quiet; calm; tranquil; peaceful'. Whilst this Chinese name has connotations of 'gentleness', the same character in Japanese refers to calmness with added connotations of being 'cool; indifferent; nonchalant; detached'.
- Her maiden name is Miao (苗 Miáo), a Chinese family name which also refers to the Miao ethnic group in China. The character also means 'seedling' in Mandarin Chinese and has the same meaning in Japanese. The Japanese pronunciation for the same character is usually nae (なえ), and sometimes byou (ビョウ) or myou (ミョウ). However, when referring to the Chinese family name Miao (苗 Miáo) or the Miao ethnic group, the Japanese pronunciation is Myao (苗 ミャオ), an approximation of the Mandarin Chinese pronunciation.
- For the character, Ten-Ten, Japanese Rosario + Vampire or Japan's Rosario + Vampire does not use the tradition of China having the wives keep the family name with the children taking the father's name, rather, Ten-Ten took Fei-Hong Huang's family name and her children took the name Huang as well.
- After Ten-Ten hits Touhou Fuhai with several needle like blades for talking while eating (and likely stealing almost everyone's food), Tsukune and friends recall that Fang Fang referred to his mother as Juliet, as they all thought "Juliet is the scariest one here!" This is a reference to the Shakespearean tragedy play and story Romeo and Juliet.
- During her introduction in the Manga, she was mistaken for Touhou Fuhai.
- She is named her moniker Juliet based on her hardheaded personality and strong will like Juliet Capulet from Romeo and Juliet.
- Despite being mistaken for Touhou Fuhai, Ten-Ten likely let it slide as they said from her looks she appeared to be in her 20s. As her son Fang Fang is a teenager and Ling Ling's age is unknown, she more likely is in her 40s, so the missed guess on her age likely put her in a forgiving mood.
- Her full personal maiden name or "personal name" before marriage is Ten-Ten Miao (苗 恬恬?, Myao Tenten). (In Chinese pinyin: Miáo Tiántián).
- Some people believe that "Ten-Ten" or Tián-Tián appears to be just a name in Chinese and Japanese, and having no meaning nor translation in either language, or just the Chinese transliteration in pronunciation translated to "Tim", making her name "Tim-Tim". This may not be entirely true.
- Additionally, her name Ten Ten (恬恬) may be a form of "Tim Tim" in Chinese, as "Tián" (Ten in Japanese) just might mean "Tim" in Chinese.
- Just like Juliet from Romeo and Juliet, Ten-Ten is strong-willed, hard-headed, determined, and plays a firm role in the story.
