HeShu is 合数. According to Google Translate, it means "composite number". I doubt that's actually what it means.

Isn't moyu named after the region in China? Perhaps not, just what I assumed after I googled it once and that came up. Names don't have to have translations.

This is interesting: http://www.msn.com/en-gb/weather/today/cn/Moyu,Xinjiang-Uygur,China/we-city-37.266,79.728
And this: http://www.tripadvisor.com/Tourism-g1859105-Moyu_County_Xinjiang_Uygur-Vacations.html
Yeah, 魔域 (the moyu cube) characters may be different than the moyu county characters, meaning, they may be pronounced the same, but they may have entirely different meanings.

Perhaps. Not too sure about this one, because 'chi' can mean 'red,' or 'bare,' and even 'sincere.' Won't put this up until we're sure...

Ah, the Moyu 13x13. I'm not sure about this one either, but I'll add it into the list once I'm sure of the meaning...

No, you're right. I just checked, and it actually is the super big 3x3. My bad...

What about Moyu Aochuang. According to my research results, it apparently means "Proud Bed". I'm quite sure thats wrong though.

傲世（Aoshi）means "proud" and "the world" respectively,so maybe it means "being proud in the world" or "One stands on the top of the world,overseeing it with pride"

Also, the moyu jinzita pyraminx.
Jinzita means literally "pyramid"

Bed should be “床” but not "创“ for "傲创(Aochuang)” XD Moyu has created lots of odd names,i dont know how to explain this name XD 傲means proud and 创 means creation

XD, I guess this was one of their proudest creations.
Any idea on Moyu Aofu. I researched it to mean proud deputy(副)

Aofu should be 傲赋 XD 赋means talent.

Yes,Heshu is the super big 3X3 and "Heshu" actually means "合树"."合" means "combine","树" means tree.

'Combine Trees?' Or is there another meaning that is hidden in the Chinese culture?

That's the literal meaning. I don't know how to explain the word "合树"...perhaps it just a name...
Yes, 傲 is derived from 骄傲, which means proud and 创 comes from 创建, meaning create. So, yeah, the literal translation pretty much means "proud creation".
Just some added info if anyone wants to know.
Edit: As for "合树"... I have no idea.

Just wondering...is there such thing as a Japanese cube? I would like to see translations for one of them.
