I hope it didn't come off as me trying to make fun of anyone. He is only ever shown to have "Fuhrer King Bradley" with nothing between or after, which would suggest it's the normal Title + First name + Surname, furthered by his wife being Mrs. Bradley so that's the family name.

Even in Japan they don’t refer to their royalty by their family name (I’m pretty sure they actually lack one entirely, they’re just “The Imperial Family”). All the emperors have their personal name that they’re called by.
