Is Toph the only character in the Avatar gang and series to have a last name?
She is the only gaang member to have an explicitly mentioned last name, to my knowledge. However I think last names are more common in the atlaverse than most people assume.
Most aliases the Gaang use have surnames (the fire family and the Pippinpaddleopsicopolis family). I also don't think it's an "only rich people have surnames" type of thing, since Hiroshi Sato and Varrick both came from humble beginnings. Zhu Li also has a surname. Jargala Omo, a criminal, also has a surname.
I could imagine Aang and the Water Tribe siblings not having surnames not using their potential surnames since their names carry no weight in the Earth Kingdom. Also Aang's entire culture got wiped out, his full legal identification probably doesn't matter that much anymore. Similarly, Suki comes from a rather isolated village. Unlike Toph where her family line directly influences the plot several times. As for Zuko, I can see his family line having a surname but being widely known by their royal titles, as we don't always refer to for example irl british royalty by their surnames.
I have a few headcanons for Mako and Bolin's surname because I needed it for a wip I'm writing. My assumption is that they hadn't gone by their family's last name in a long time and may not fully identify with it, ergo them not introducing themselves with it.
Asami's family name is important due to their wealth and resources and, similairly to Toph, her family name is a big part of the plot.
Korra's the goddamn Avatar, so who gives a fuck abot last names here, she's pretty damn recognisable.

Korra au where it goes in a completely separate direction where Korra shows up as a fully realized avatar, and yeah she’s upset at what Amon’s doing because he’s actually making everything unbalanced because benders and nonbenders both need to exist, but more than anything, her issue is with Hiroshi Sato
Because this dude’s inventions are pumping out a shit ton of pollution, and as the Avatar, Korra can feel exactly how much it’s messing up nature
Just because I like the idea of Korra showing up, using airbending and waterbending to remove pollutants from the air and water, throwing those pollutants into people’s faces, and completely ignoring Amon who put himself into the limelight
(Not that I’m against the inventions, but look at those old timey automobiles and tell me they aren’t fucking up everyone’s lungs)

Doesn't have to be the character you think is the most evil, just the one you most love to hate/hate to love. They suck severely but whenever they show up you can't look away.
PROPAGANDA:
Amon/Noatak - Bloodbender with a genuinely tragic backstory. Reinvents his entire identity and creates a sham political movement that exploits real tensions between benders and non-benders instead of going to therapy. Explodes at sea with his baby brother Tarrlok.
Hiroshi - Straight up tries to murder his daughter and then runs away like a coward. Bit of an elitist snob. Calls Mako a rat which is ironic considering he's the one spending a not-insignificant portion of his time skittering through a series of underground tunnels.
Varrick - Steals Asami's company and also every scene he's in. Invents the movie and immediately uses it for war propaganda. Has only a wisp of a ghost of a moral compass. Helps start at least two sectarian conflicts. Always has some kind of foot situation going on (bunions, calluses, etc.) and makes it everyone else's problem. Treats Zhu Li terribly and for some reason she agrees to marry him anyway.
Unalaq - Nasty little manipulator. Jealous of his hotter older brother so he gets him banished from their tribe. Was part of the Red Lotus plot to kidnap Korra as a baby. Has an arguably erotic encounter with the ancient Spirit of Darkness that makes him huge and also red (honestly it's an upgrade).
Raiko - Total loser who didn't want a tree growing through his office and was a massive bitch to Korra. Failpresident who coped with his re-election loss by starting the in-universe equivalent of Fox News.
Zaheer - Horrifically brutalizes Korra and then haunts her for like 4 years. Kills the Earth Queen and creates a power vacuum later exploited by Kuvira. The kind of guy you meet at a protest who seems cool at first but then he says something completely batshit that makes you want to back away slowly with your hands up.
Queen Hou-Ting - Shitty old despot whose favorite activities are abusing palace staff and bleeding her people dry. Hates animals. Literally her only redeeming quality is that she's related to Wu. Got very creatively murdered by Zaheer. Probably nobody cares about her but I needed more evil women for this poll hashtag feminism.
Aiwei - Funny little guy with some great jewelry who always knows when you're lying. Let Zaheer and Co. into Zaofu via a secret tunnel attached to his room. Currently enjoying a long vacation in the Fog of Lost Souls.
Kuvira - Created what was essentially a nuclear bomb and looked super hot while doing it. An ethnonationalist who put dissenters in camps and probably killed tens of thousands of people and was only mildly apologetic about it.
Guan - A less hot and less competent Kuvira. Brainwashes Asami, Mako, and Bolin into attacking Korra in the comics. Even more unsuccessful at politics than Raiko.

if sokka & asami existed in the same timeline (aka about the same age range), they'd be an excellent duo in innovation. they'd sit together and just bounce ideas on what to invent next. hiroshi (as a good guy) would have also loved sokka. he would've helped invent things to end the war.

Horrid ramblings related to the tlok rewrite I have in my head. Book 1, Air but with the Red Lotus as primary antagonists.
So my thoughts are that in this AU, the airbending would come from Vaatu (somehow) I like the idea of Raava and Vaatu being these very eldritchy beings that are able to manupulate the world around them. Raava sacrificed this trait in order to merge with the Avatar, but Vaatu is stil lovecraftian and well
With Harmonic Convergence nearing, perhaps Vaatu is able to exude more influence on the world. It would be interesting to see unexplained events happen more frequently as he gains power.
The Red Lotus are on board with freeing Vaatu, as they were in canon, and Vaatu lets airbending back into the world, knowing or maybe just hoping that Zaheer would get airbending and get his jailbird shit together
I think it would be a fun mystery. No one exactly knows why people started airbending all of a sudden ans this is a mystery that we slowly piece together as the show progresses.
Korra hears about airbenders popping up out of nowhere and runs away to Republic City, since she sees this as a perfect opportunity to become the Avatar she was meant to be. At this time the Red Lotus is breaking out and that adds to the tension as we see how woefully unprepared Korra is for this bunch of assassins.
I think it would be interesting to see Korra struggle and fail at airbending while there are randos all over the world getting airbending for free. She can bond with Bumi (who I'm not sure about giving airbending to) lol
I'd have the first few episodes going on in Republic City, but then have Korra and co travel in search of airbenders.
I'm not sure about keeping the pro bending storyline. I know how important it was to the og show, however it would make the storyline incredibly cluttered.
I'd want to highlight the bending brother's connections to the triads too, so I might make them somehow affiliated with the Triple Threats. But then betray them and join Korra in her travels. Because staying in RC after pissing off the triads would essentially be a death sentence.
If the brothers were still in Probending, I'd take inspiration from the storyline of Republic City hustle with the rigged matches. Have the brothers be forced to win/lose depending on how the triad places its bets. Have them be forced to deliberately throw matches cuz the triad invested in the opposing team.
I'm not fully sure how to factor Asami into this, but I had a thought of Hiroshi (who is still an equalist agent but that won't matter until B3) graciously donating resources into the search for airbenders. In order to buy himself into the Avatar's good graces and to have a direct line to the newly emerging airbenders for future evil plans.
Whether Asami is in on her father's plans or not, she acts as captain/pilot of the airship and quickly befriends the rest of the Krew. Gay ensues.
I'd change around the pacing a little, maybe move the Beifong family drama to the later seasons or at least not focus on it as much. But these are minute details I don't really have time to focus on. Maybe introduce Wu earlier. That sorta stuff.
Yeah um. Please don't let this become an actual project. I don't have the strength to write a fic like this. But the concept is tempting. Please tell me your thoughts. I'm super curious about them

Asami Should Have Been An Equalist
I'm sure this has been done and, one day, I want to do a meta on this, but I feel like by not making Asami an equalist, a big source of personal conflict (and therefore, development) got taken away from her.
I was watching a video talking about how she was supposed to be an equalist and several comments were made about how Asami would have been more developed or interesting.
And, for preface, Mako and Korra break up and stay broken up like canon. This isn't about ships. I do have my preferences, but I genuinely think if Asami had been allowed to be an equalist who came over to the good guys she would have had a strong arc throughout all 4 books, her relationship with Korra would have developed both characters further (Korra is developed in canon, but this would have added layers) as a former enemy of benders follows the more bending bender to ever bender and even if they weren't sure they could do Korrasami, they still could have had Makorra broken up and Korra and Asami have the closest relationship in the show if not one of them. Even better if we did get canon Korrasami like we did.
But this would have made Korrasami much more developed and deeper regardless of how the show ended ship wise for them (speaking explicit canon KS or not. Again, not factoring in romantic MK here).
But Asami being an equalist was a strong personal source of conflict and a Huge opportunity for ongoing growth that, when taken away, wasn't replaced by something with the same weight. That's the primary issue. Hiroshi going to jail in s1 solves that arc and she's left floundering for the next 3 seasons.
An equalist arc could have seen Asami changing sides in s1, maybe dealing with feelings of betraying her family in s2 which could have paralled Korra's family arc, her personal feelings of how she feels about benders as Korra is finding new airbenders and bringing back the Air Nation, s4 could have had this arc conclude with reconciling her past actions, forgiving herself (and her father maybe) and figuring out how to stand up for non-benders in the world without hurting innocent people (bender and non-bender alike) alongside Korra's messy personal arc.
And that's just one loose option. As much as I know they liked her so much they wanted her on the good guys side, I feel like it also robbed her of some much needed internal conflict.
