Jasmine like everyone said , it's Japan's norm to usually address artiste with their surnames 1st & then their names .

For me it depends on the situation & how 'pretty' & 'fitting' it sounds .

Like the Japanese addressed Hirai Ken but for me I go with Ken Hirai . Same thing for Jun Matsumoto which I addressed as Matsumoto Jun cos it sounds better lol

there's not really a right or wrong in this issue anyway it all boils down to personal preferences
