Stopped using last names at least after FFVIII. Also have last names in later games, but mostly minor characters and species names (ex. Kimahri Ronso, FFX/X2).

One reason Kairi might not have had a last name is that she didn't exist for the first game except for the sole purpose of keeping the darkness sealed (What sort of name would Kairi Seventhprincesswhosealsthedarkness be?), and most of the Final Fantasy (and Disney characters that I can think of) didn't have last names, so they probably figured it wasn't worth having just a couple of people with last names.

Or they could have had an "Official Last Name Creator" who retired after FFVII, but I'm not insane enough to suggest that seriously (or am I...?)
