:shrug: I don't know, just feel like I need to let everyone know that we've been lied to on some of the names such as Denmark's and Liechtenstein's and Ukraine's.  Did you know Mathias, Lili, and Yekaterina were all just fan given names and not the real ones Himaruya listed could be potential ones?  Not even their (or at least Liechtenstein's) surnames are what we think they are!  So here are the official and officially suggested names Himaruya listed for most of the characters.

Note: All of the following names have the official spelling and accents Himaruya gave them.

America: Alfred F. Jones (official.)
Australia: Ralph, Christian, Kyle, and Jett (all listed potential names.  No surname given.)
Austria: Roderich Edelstein (official.)
Belarus: Natalia Arlovskaya (official.)
Belgium: Laura, Emma, Anri, and Manon (all listed potential names.  No surname given.)
Canada: Matthew Williams (official.)
China: Wang Yao (official.)
Cuba: Máximo (Juan), Ericemdo, and Carlos Machado (all listed potential names.  Machado is only the official surname to Carlos.)
Denmark: Andersen, Christensen, Arnesen, Simon Densen, Abel, Mikkel, Magnus, Bertram (all listed potential names.  Densen was counted as a possible surname and is the official surname of Simon.)
Egypt: Gupta Muhammad Hassan (official.)
England: Arthur Kirkland (official.)
Estonia: Eduard von Bock (official.)
Finland: Tino Väinämöinen (official.)
France: Francis Bonnefoy (official.)
Greece: Heracles Karpusi (official.)
Germany: Ludwig (official.  No surname given, although fans gave him the same one Prussia was officially given.)
Hong Kong: Wang Jia Long, Li Xiao Chun, and Leon (all listed potential names.  No surname given to Leon.)
Hungary: Elizabeta Héderváry (official.)
Iceland: Emil, Sigurður, Eiríkur, and Egill (all listed potential names.  Steilsson was given as an official surname.)
Italy: Feliciano Vargas (official.)
Japan: Honda Kiku (official.)
Latvia: Raivis Galante (official.)
Liechtenstein: Erika, Sisia, Elise, and Eva (all listed potential names.  Vogel was counted as a possible surname.)
Lithuania: Toris Laurinaitis (official.)
Netherlands: Tim, Govert, Abel, and Morgens (all listed potential names.  No surname given.)
Norway: Lukas Bondevik, Børre Thomassen, Bjørn, Kjetil, Knut, and Sigurd (all listed potential names.  Both Bondevik and Thomassen were counted as possible surnames.  Bondevik is the official surname of Lukas and Thomassen is the official surname of Børre.)
Poland: Feliks Łukasiewicz (official.)
Prussia: Gilbert Beilschmidt (official.)
Russia: Ivan Braginski (official.)
Sealand: Peter Kirkland (official.)
South Italy: Lovino Vargas (official.)
South Korea: Im Yong Soo (official.)
Spain: Antonio Fernández Carriedo (official.)
Sweden: Berwald Oxenstierna (official.)
Switzerland: Basch Zwingli (official.)
Taiwan: Lin Yi Ling or Xiao Mei (all listed potential names.)
Turkey: Sadık Adnan (official.)
Ukraine: Irunya Chernenko, Maria, and Sofia (all listed potential names.  Chernenko was listed as a possible surname and officially given to the name Irunya.  Irunya is a bit of a nickname, however, and her name would more accurately be Irina, although Iryna is considered the Ukrainian variant.)

And there you go!  Hope that clears up any confusion :D.

Lichtenstein's name is Lilli Zwigli just like her brother (Swiss) is named Bash Zwingli
The Netherlands is named Abel or Tim (not sure) but his surename is de Vries.

Ukraine is named Yekaterina "Katyusha" Braginskaya if I'm right

As is already mentioned in the journal, Lili Zwigli is a FAN name. I listed the OFFICIAL and POSSIBLE names HIMARUYA listed, which is why this is called the REAL Hetalia human names. If you read the each word I wrote, you'd know that Belgium and Netherlands have no listed surname, they have multiple listed first names, Ukraine's name is not that, Turkey's name is not spelled that way, and Himaruya NEVER gave names for anyone else. I listed EVERYONE he gave names to.

these are only the names that I saw in many (almost all) fanfics
and besides I don't car if the names are real or fake!

Then you wouldn't have told me so matter-of-factly I was wrong.

Ah thanks for this!

I have that same sort of OCD, and I hate it when people use the Kirkland surname for Australia; we should get the same treatment as Canada!!
I think Jett is best, but Steve is another good some of us came up with since it's after Steve Irwin, and a lot of countries are named after someone famous.
