Or I might be wrong.

Your probably right and I am just getting the two confused...lol.

I just checked the article by Jason Fischer. Yup, you are right. "Fukurin" means "marginal variegation". I was confused with Fuukiran. Fuukiran"--translated as "Orchid of the Rich and Noble", is a Fuuran that has been recognized by a panel of judge for its distinct and unique characteristics.
Sorry!

I don't speak Japanese, but have found citations that Fukiran means "rich and noble orchid." Neos are also commonly called Furan in Japanese, which means "wind orchid."

How about Kotoufukurin? Or is it pretty much the same as Gojyo Fukurin?

I also found a nice picture classification of variegated Fukurin except it's in Japanese.
