Assuming this guy’s of Vietnamese ancestry, wouldn’t his given name be more correctly spelled “Trương” or even just “Truong”? I don’t know very much of the language, but as a former resident of Garden Grove I just notice such things. Unless it’s a deliberate misspelling to avoid confusion with some real person, à la the naming of “Mr. Hyunh” as opposed to “Huỳnh” in Hey Arnold!
Good worldbuild on the starbase!

It’s just a mistake in the script. I’ll fix it in later panels.
