thats their family names.
Japanese culture just puts their family names FIRST, so you look at the 2nd name and use that for their FIRST name

so Hoshigaki Kisame&#39;s first name is.... KISAME </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'>
Korean people use last names first, then followed by the first name.

I think most Asian countries do, too.
