Okay, so figured out that in Japan, it's normal to call people with there surname. Is that as a sign of respect or something? I'm glad that in my country that isn't because it would be irritating for me because i have a terrible surename...
Partly is respect, but you also only call really close person by first name.
I guess first name in Japan is like nickname in Western standard. Only those close enough to you will give you some sort of nickname. And you will feel kinda uncomfortable if someone not as close called you by nickname
And... nickname in Japan is like nickname lvl 2 in Western standard
