IIRC, the students were being seated in order of their names. Since Kyon was seated in front of Haruhi, that implies that his name comes before her in the alphabetical or Kana order. In Japanese, T comes right after S, which comes right after K, and the vowels are in the order A, I, U, E, O, so Kyon's surname very likely starts with a K or with Sa/Shi/Su.
