This was one of the things Jerry Siegel complained about in the '70s:

Quote
Also concerned in the 1947 case was Detective Comics, Inc. publishing "Lois Lane, Girl Reporter" and carrying the byline, "By Jerry and Joe", without any compensation being paid to us.

Perhaps that's why the last names were left out of the byline - in order to avoid having to pay Jerry or Joe.

No matter what sort of a moral case you make for Jerry & Joe, they SOLD Superman, fair and square. What the new owners do with the character is THEIR business.
