I made it "last name" "first name"
Like:
Mouri Ran or Mouri Kogorou D:
Well, Andre is his first name, right? O.o"
yeah, it is

but yeah, it's still weird to do last name first for western names imo because that's not how it's done in western culture.

In Hungary it is. It's also very common in Bavaria and Austria (I think in Switzerland as well). I actually tend to say my last name first.
We don't make mistakes. We have happy accidents.

There's no way Camel can win this. Vodka has been around since day 1.
Lynch Vodka!!!
Ran has been also since day 1 and there's people who would never vote for her...
The same can be said for Shinichi as well, for that matter...
But they have been in basically the whole show since day one. Vodka comes in and out from time to time.
So, less time of appearance= win?
Comparing a small time character from the start to the major characters from the start = stupid.

Aren't they all meant to be from America, though, except from James, who's English? In both the UK and America, given names would be said first, family names second. Unless he was doing a "Camel, Andre Camel" thing XD

memory no XD or memory, no memory. Preferably with a really long pause
But imo it is better to call people as they would call them selves, as Mouri Ran and James Black, not Ran Mouri and Black James.
