Naming

In Chinese, 外屏 (Wài Píng), meaning Outer Fence, refers to an asterism consisting of ε Piscium, δ Piscium, ζ Piscium, μ Piscium, ν Piscium, ξ Piscium and α Piscium. Consequently, the Chinese name for ε Piscium itself is 外屏二 (Wài Píng èr, .) In Japanese, 悠翔星 (Haruto-boshi), meaning "Soaring Forever Star," refers to the Japanese description of ε Piscium.
