When did "Tse Tung" become "Zedong"?
KOS: I know you're right. I'm just wondering when it changed.
Don't know. I did a quick google on "mao" to see if I spelled it correctly (I think my spelling was pretty close to yours), and "Zedong" is what I found. . .

His name begins with a sound that is pronounced towards the back of the mouth that doesn't really exist in English. But, maybe they talk funny over in Lybia, I don't really know. . .
