oh i thought you were referring specifically to him in the bit about Oakley being trendy. i haven't heard Oakley used otherwise tbh.and yea same about surnames. won't stick. beyond that, it just sounds off to me? especially since in the country i currently live, surnames are always said before first names, unless it's foreign. not that it'd create a complication- again, doesn't apply to foreign names- but for me, it's been weird to flip back and forth, so it makes surname name stand out more as odd. they also tend to feel more..impersonal, if it's a very recognizable surname. the ones i do like are more common as first names, like Wesley and Harper.
