That mistake (confusing Miki with the name instead of knowing that it is the surname) is quite common. I've met lots of people who though that Miki was his name (and not only with Miki-sama but also with Takehito Koyasu, Tomokazu Seki and other seiyuus). When i first knew Miki-sama, i was lucky because the girl who wrote the webpage i was reading was aware of this problem and she expplained, very clearly, that Miki was his surname and Shin-ichirou was his beautiful name. So i didn't confuse his name with his surname. ^^U What surprised me was confusing him with a woman! ^^UUU That was new for me. Specially because of the implications it has saying that i (a woman) LOVE Miki-sama and that i wish i could be his *girlfriend* and all!!! XDDDD That was shocking! ^_______^UUU Anyway... As said, is quite common to misunderstand this since japanese write surnames first and names in second place which is exactly the other way around in most occidental countries. :P And since people doesn't have an agreement and everyone write the names as they want (surname - names; name - surname; just surname; etc) is easy to get confused... ^^UUU But i agree with who said that you can't assume things with japanese names since there're lot of things we don't know about them and about japanese culture itself, that we can't be sure that, what we knew for one case will work for another one. :P ^_^ Bye bye!
