Getting rid of surnames

[Rinoa]

It isn't an issue of not having enough possibilities of names for everyone, We need enough possibilities so we can all have the names we want. I'm against having to put a - in my name. I was upset when i couldn't get the name Heartilly, I had to go with Leonhart instead. I don't think Square will nix the surname. But i could see them letting us turn them off. =)

If you can see:

The amount of possibilities for names are only enhanced by allowing, at free will, for people to choose only ONE name.

Essentially you're creating a free space for EVERYONE to choose every name that currently exists, by simply not having a last name. That's what? another 30,000 name possibilities right there.
