Yes, but Wikipedia isn't including the Brigadier, the Arwells or most of the chacters we are. It's also a very different template.

Let me condense my point. Last names are not a problem in terms of alphebitisation and characters lacking last names are not a problem. But first names or most frequently used name is presenting us with multiple problems. We have Sarah Jane Smith, the Brigadier, the Arwells. We have characters like Joan Redfern and so on.

Using full names doesn't present a problem for characters who only have one name. Using first names present a problem for all sorts of characters. So why?
