Please be noted that, in Japanese, family name is being placed in front of given name due to Japanese culture. And because SAO is a Japanese series, therefore we follow this rule and it is the original character name order, i.e. for Kayaba:family name, Akihiko:given name, we write them in the form of Kayaba Akihiko instead of the reverse.
