    I don't think it really translates to anything :S Yama (山) means mountain, though, and could work within a first name.

    I might be alone, but I think those naming conventions were worth the wait.

    Sheesh, so much funky info!

    Still wish we got these sooner. Even though I already decided which tribe, with all those clans to choose form it's going to be tough to pick a name for my Xaela. Avagnar sounds cool and would fit an exiled adventurer I guess.

    That feeling when your character's name is correct and that the last name is simply the Eorzean translation. Easily handwaved. :P

    I'm probably just going to keep the name I use now, as that's the name people got to know my character as, and maybe keep the other name as like a secret name that she only lets her closest friends and family know.
