Actually ancient Chinese had two given names, one is called "Ming", which is the given name that morden Chinese also use; the other one is "Zi", which is a sort of formal name or courtesy name. So "Liang" is his given name, and "Kongming" is his courtesy name. The two given names ususally have similar meanings, for this case, both "Kongming" and "Liang" means "light"
