    Osama and Mao, but yes it’s increasingly rare. I think we tend to associate historic people with their last names more than their first names.

        I keep forgetting that Asia mostly have the family name first. But Osama still stands.

          yeah, for most of the western world that was the first time we’d heard that name.
