A reason for him being named Uzumaki was never given.

I agree.
why was he Uzumaki?
they could have given other titles like Yamanaka, Akimichi etc.
that lame reason that minato's enemies will kill Naruto was bad writing.

I'm saying it wasn't given at all...enemies trying to kill Naruto was just an assumption made by Minato about why Hiruzen didn't tell Naruto who his Dad was.(Based off what he knew about the secrecy around Kushina being Jinchuuriki)

Him being named Uzumaki by Hiruzen due to that is an assumption made by readers.

Its not an assumption, it was shown in manga.

Here Minato sayin to Naruto "if anyone knew u were my son u will be in constant danger" that's why Hiruzen gave Naruto his mother surname.

still Hiruzen can easily give him titles like Nara, Akimichi, Yamanaka.
This way shinobis/spies from different village will think he is from this and that clan.

bold... That wasn't said. (For all we know, it was going to be Uzumaki even if his parents never died)

and again, Minato was just speculating.

Why did you cutoff the other one?

Kishimoto created Uzumaki Menma...fans labeled it 'filler' doubt Kishi cared enough to think about 'Canon/Filler'

Uzumaki Menma had nothing to do with Sasuke...he was an evil Alternate Naruto whose parents never died

Sasuke was a flirty guy in that movie

Well I think the reason was valid.......okay here are my points tell me if you agree....

1. As far as naming was concerned the clans you mentioned were hidden clans who specialized in their jutsus..... so he couldn't be put in one of those...but a rather inconspicuous surname would have been better than the legendary Uzumakis.

2. The village was shaken up and was recovering so Minato's enemy attacking Naruto to take Kyubi as well as use Naruto as a bargaining chip was a high probability.

3. Maybe and thats a maybe Hiruzen himself didn't know what to do with Naruto....I mean he kept records of Naruto but he didn't know that Jiraiya was training him or anything.

bro that was filler. it was written by Yuka Minata. so nothing to discuss about it.

first one i was just giving examples.How about haruno or Umino(it wont look good but it would have hid naruto's identity). they donot belong to any clan.
second one that's purely plot. Tobi should have come next day to steal kid naruto.

Well Orochimaru likely knew. He isn't the type to care but won't be surprised.

Namikaze was a name given to an orphan it wasn't a recognised clan.....and as for Uzumakis their whole clan was wiped out,, only a few remained. And tell me how many other Uzumakis have you known in Konoha....i know about 3 in the entire NV

Literally Naruto, Karin, Nagato, Kushina, Mito, Tsunade, Nawaki, and Naruto's kids. Theres almost as many as the Uchiha.

Every Major Ninja Village has spies. The Kage’s were bound to know who Naruto’s parent were. The Raikage fought Minato and not everyone is so dumb to see that Naruto looks like His Father.

There are other blonds though. I don't think the villagers care enough to put 2-and-2 together. They only saw him as a monster, not a child of a Hokage.
Everything this person and some others had said

I meant alive and at the time when Naruto was born.....Mito, Kushina, Nawaki were dead.....btw wouldn't Tsunade and Nawaki be counted as Senju? So i guess that leaves Karin, Nagato and Naruto......

Road to Ninja, the script and character designs were created by Masashi Kishimoto. (meaning he named Uzumaki Menma)

and again...forgetting that, Kishimoto did this

'Uzumaki Family' in bold.

Spies you mean??? Spices are what we put in eatables while cooking them
