    And while we're at it, we should also get Vath/Gnath conventions, as well as the Vanu.

    According the quests with the Vath, they do not have a naming convention. I would assume this especially extends to the Gnath. The concept of naming an individual has only came to them recently through trading with hunters.

    As for Dragons, as far as I can tell they have two separate names not including the first brood. Male npcs seem to have the convention go like this, Name letter name. Females on the other hand have a long singular worded name. As for how they name their young, still a mystery to me.

    Not sure if someone answered but I think I figured out the Vanu naming conventions. They all seem to have two syllable first names. For example Guna, Gona and Hinu. From what I seen the second syllable must always start with a N but how it's pronounced does not matter. As for their last names it seems to either be Vanu or Vali. I have a theory that it signifies gender. Vanu for males and Vali for females. Of course, the naming convention is only for the Zundu and not the Vundu. I haven't seen enough Vundu names to arrive at a conclusion for them. Examples of names:

    Guna Vanu
    Gona Vanu
    Hinu Vali
    Sonu Vanu
    Lonu Vanu
