I would venture to say that most countries would require that and it is some kind of weird UK exception, rather than it being just US thing.
If they do, it's bizarre. If the sender hasn't helped out by putting a surname on the mail, what business is it of the post office?

Typing that though... in this pussy day and age of 'data protection act' to save getting sued if John Smith opens John Jones' letter with car insurance details or smth like that. In fact that's what it has to be. Case closed!
