Why is Suzaku's name in katakana?

[nelotizapu.livejournal.com]

I was looking at the japanese site (http://www.geass.jp/world_03.html) and saw that Suzaku's name is in katakana, even though all the rest of the japanese (and chinese) character's have kanji names. (Well, except for Kallen, but she's a half.)

Is it because he's an "Honorary Britannian"? Or is he a half also? XD

Well, his family is in kanji, but still... it's weird that his given name isn't. :|

...and looking at Kallen's wikipedia page (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kallen_Stadtfeld), I finally find out why I was confused about it being Karen or Kallen. It's both? Then again, it puts her given name in katakana even it's "Kōzuki Karen". So how is it known if it's Karen or Kallen when it's in katakana either way?

I'm confused. XD

Gasp! My first time using a tag!

It's "Kallen". At least that's what OST 2 booklet says.

IIRC, "Karen" was gg's choise.

Ah, I watch the gg subs, so that's why I thought Karen. XD Thanks for the official proof for "Kallen".
