[1] According to Wikipedia, [2] Zack probably meant the Japanese era name. I guess you are the right person to say whether it should be written as "neng=C5=8D" or "nengo" or "Japanese era name" or "Japanese year name" or just drop the parentheses completely. I think it's not about the Japanese Calendar, as you suggest. BTW, this Wikipedia article also explained me what you mean by the "year name". I confirm that the term is confusing for those unfamiliar with the Japanese calendar.
