--- Quote from: meliwan on July 23 2006, 02:39 pm ---Shizuka is Doumeki's given name. Watanuki asks Doumeki what his family calls him, and Doumeki responds "Shizuka". I don't think his family would call him by his surname.
Also, Kimihiro is Watanuki's given name.
I am 99.999999999999% percent sure on this.

Hm, no problem!
To add on, just looking at Himawari we can tell Kimihiro is his given name, rather than Watanuki. She calls Doumeki by his surname, making him "Doumeki-kun". If she called Watanuki anything other than "Watanuki-kun" such as "Kimihiro-kun" or whatever, he'd probably have freaked out and been like "HAHAHAH HIMAWARI-CHAN LIKES ME MORE THAN DOUMEKI!" cos he's crazy that way and makes a big deal about Himawari treating him the same as Doumeki.

Sorry, I was going by the DelRey translation. Did they get that wrong? Because they list characters with reverse name order (Sorata was Sorata Arisugawa, Arashi was Arashi Kishuu), and it was "Watanuki Kimihiro."
...I'm very confused now.

Just means that Del Rey listed his name in the Japanese order, that's all. Not much for consistency though. >_>
