Yū AoiYu Aoi – as per the official website. Yu Aoi is "the form personally or professionally used by the person (such as on their official website or official social media profile), if available in the English/Latin alphabet" (WP:JATITLE#Names of modern figures). 123.225.49.247 (talk) 08:03, 18 February 2013 (UTC)Reply

While I won't make another move because the above proves that it is such a touchy subject, but Aoi is a very well-known public figure in Japan and her agency's profile and full website clearly and consistently use the "Yu Aoi" spelling (they're inconsistent on the name order, so the rules seem to be to default to family name last in such cases). See also the poster for the film Redline and more recently that for Killing, in which her name is again written "Yu Aoi" in both cases (and they are consistent with putting the family name last). It's not case of going on something as liminal as a URL, album cover or an official use only by the person's agency and nowhere else.
