Not to mention, a lot of people call her YAIKO, so that's an easy one to mess up.

Most fans call her Hikki. But lately she's been called 'Utada' a lot because that's the name she uses for her English language stuff. (ie. Exodus by Utada)
It's just easier for a Western audience to remember and pronounce. Also....it just sounds really cool......
