i thought it was always written as Reimu Hakurei but read as Hakurei Reimu == since Reimu is her First name after all

Asia simply has a different name system. Let's take a Westerner named "John Doe" as an example, who has a daughter named "Jane Doe."
"John" and "Jane" are their given names, while "Doe" is the family name. I would assume this comes from shortening "John of the Doe clan."

In Asia, however, family was/is held with higher regard than personal importance. As such, the given name comes after the family name; "Doe John" and his daughter "Doe Jane." This is also perpetuated by their language; Fujiwara no Mokou = "Mokou of the Fujiwara clan."

Having an Asian username, I'd assume you know that, but...I had time and felt like typing something that might be useful to someone. =P
