It's a cultural thing I know this, but aside from Tenma and Shinsuke, even people who are close friends call each other by surname. And I don't understand why for the most part, the girls are exceptions to this. Are the girls any closer to the boys as the boys are to each other? Everyone calls Kidou "Sharp" in the dub, even though it's his last name. Even his sister calles him Sharp.
