Silly Hikaru Utada Question About Her Name

[Uemarasan]

I think Hamasaki Ayumi sounds better and more natural than Ayumi Hamasaki. In fact, Japanese names sound better in their natural arrangement (surname first and then given name). There is a reason why they've kept the system for centuries.

Really, it's just a matter of familiarizing yourself with a foreign language and culture.

Luv Venus, you have to hear Kwon Boa pronounced by an actual Korean. It sounds fine.
