Well my guess is that when people are first introduced to Utada, the first way they see or hear is "Utada Hikaru" and so they grow accustomed to saying it that way.

If they majority said "Hikaru Utada" and that's the way people were introduced to it, then that's the way we'd be saying it and "Utada Hikaru" would sound out of place.

Not to mention it's how Utada herself says and types it and that has a lot to do with it as well.

For instance, I was introduced to Kumi Koda as "Kumi Koda". Later I found out the majority says "Koda Kumi" and although that sounds good to them, to me it sounds odd and my way sounds odd to the majority.

It's just the way it is.

That aside, how's her music? Is it good?
