Everyone in Japan will be called Sato by 2531 unless marriage law changed, says professor - Lemmy.ca

“If everyone becomes Sato, we may have to be addressed by our first names or by numbers,” he said, according to the Mainichi. “I don’t think that would be a good world to live in.”

What’s wrong with names?

Not anyone find it good to be called by first name. And japanese culture is very attach to last name naming or I should say family name cause their are placing it the other way around.
