Well considering the Name. ief is actually for boys in germany. For girls some first name near to eve it is eef or evi (later is however coming out of french/english usage and has eva as equivalent).

I actually wanted to name her Eve (well, my QC told me to and I agreed), but I forgot to save the change it seems
It's her last name anyways, so it doesn't really matter if it's for boys or girls
I didn't actually know that Ief is a real name (I can't remember ever having heard of anyone with that name), I just tried to fit the pronunciation in German.

The names in this series generally are so stupid I'm having quite a lot of trouble with them, Ief/Eve wasn't even the worst

Lord, how unintentionally ridiculous this manga is. I wonder if American readers experience the same gamut of emotions when they see American characters like I do from a Soviet girl in this?

@UserNamesAreOverrated The names are some what the charm of the series. Yes they seem to be all over the place. At least in the character overview at the start of chapter 8. Like in the second row Kei Schindler (Kei is a boys forename, Schindler a surname) but the next character on the right side has Micht Hilda (Hilda is a forename). So there is that.
Eve or a derivative of it as a surname is questionable in itself. I only looked up German given names to look for something matchable. Hence the names given in my first post.
I'm not exactly sure. The author might turned surname and forename in cases of German (European?) heritage when written down contrary to Asian way of introducing yourself with your surname and after that the given name. Just call it a hunch, why it might be confusing.

(btw in chapter 2 p3. there is a typo in yuuto zeiss without the w, if the spelling zweiss is settled.)

I fixed the typo now
Having a first name as your last name isn't really that strange in German speaking countries, although it is pretty rare (duh), but the (kinda) Japanese first names really screw me over...
I am actually something similar to a German, so I don't look the names up, but just check if they sound "normal", and well yeah...interesting to say the least.
I actually read like three volumes of the raws today, and I already know which names are gonna suck in the next year(?), also you can look forward to some real bruh moments.

@UserNamesAreOverrated Looking forward for more to come. Just don't overdo it and get exhausted.

Well I was a bit interested myself and asked prof. google regarding having the last name that can be a first name - yes. But in those cases they are mostly male first name, since woman got sure name of their spouse (and I only recognize those as "common"). Woman first names to become surnames was exceptional - it needed a high status of the woman to "donate" the lineage to begin with. (there are exception, but those are pretty rare https://www.deutsche-nachnamen.de/index.php/vornamen-als-nachnamen And even the examples given at in the link are not the "generic female first names" but rather derivative).

So I understand the RAF and USAF work together but... are the airborne troops from a British glider solely American???

and now the yankees are in. I'm quite surprised by how low the casualties are: a measly 2.

Do the EE.UU. people call themselves yankees? I thought it was a derogative from the mexicans.
