In japan it's actually backwards. So Hamato Yoshi for splinter his real first name is Yoshi his "last" is hamato. So for the turtles it would be hamato Leonardo, hamato Raphael, hamato Michaelangelo, and hamato Donatello.

I'd think so they have never really ever gone by there full names I know that fans use the full Hamato name. But they're more into headcanon stuff

Technically yes they just don't use it. The one time I remember is when the won the first part of the gauntlet and splinter said victory belongs to clan hamato or something like that

They are technically Hamato, cause the 4 Turtles and Splinter were all related in a past life, They were Hamato Yoshi's sons.

Technically they wouldn't be called Hamato Leonardo, Hamato Raphael etc. Because did they use Hamato Splinter? No. It should be their past lives' names like Hamato Yoshi. Hamato ____? The children's past lives names were never stated.

In this new life, they go with the names April gave them: Splinter, Leonardo, etc. No last names.

I liked Mikey's reaction to the last name thing "Hey I never thought about that...that's not fair!"
