Prince Harry's new 'Chief Impact Officer' job title at San Francisco-based mental health start-up BetterUp Inc.
is leaving some in Japan laughing over its acronym.
The job title, that in the US is sometimes shortened to 'CHIMPO', has already drawn mockery at home in Britain for the silly-sounding phrase.
But it has led to laughter and red-faces among many in the Asian country who have heard the news, due to the word 'chimpo' in Japanese being slang for 'penis'.
The Duke of Sussex was unveiled last month as the chief impact officer (CHIMPO) at BetterUp with this corporate black and white photograph of Harry released at the same time.

'So his role is Chief Pole Officer?' another social media user mused.
The firm's founder has refused to say whether Harry is being paid a salary.
It quoted Harry as saying: 'I intend to help create impact in people's lives.'
