It's actually more of a big deal in Japan, because people call each other with their surname.
Takeya-san.
When I went to get my new passport at the Japanese Embassy, they called me...
"ORIARII-san! " - that was weird!
Every year for 6 years, mom with her awkward writing, but better than Emi or I, did her best to write and stitch on the t-shirts for me.
In Chu-Gakkoo everyone's name was printed by the printer, so we were all relieved of the pressure.
Googled and found few people with the same name. And I know, they were first...
Miss Irish Sun is Naomi O'Leary too.

I still can't get used to ur new surname...which should not be!
Daisei Takeya also was Daisei Okamura, but he still uses his former name in daily activities.
Oriari Naomi-san, not dis-respecting Matt, but in my mind I will still think of you as Naomi Takeya!
