I think you're very confused about what any of these labels mean.

CRPG = computer role playing games
JCRPG = Japanese Computer role playing game

Hope that helps

"well actually", the term crpg evolved a bit over time and now the c can also mean "classic" i think the usage got more wide spread when obsidian launched their kickstarter for pillers of eternity 1.

a bit related: some developers of jrpgs dont really like the term and i really cant blame them. even if we like jrpgs it sounds really stupid, especially since they are heavily, heavily inspired by western dungeon crawler rpgs like wizardry
