Fans
When it comes to fan-based projects, most fans rather use the Canon AU where they both are countries. This is due to the fact that if they are portrayed in a different AU, they both need to bear family names and the most preferred one is 'Kirkland'. This leads to incest even though they both aren't related, this is to prevent confusion. There are times when fans will only use their first names, no family names included.
