Yeah, something would be nice at this point. I gave the Au'ra a pass because of how difficult it was to explain eastern naming to a western audience. But c'mon! Both the new races seem to have a variation of northern european names. Scandinavian, Norse, etc. It can't be THAT hard to say "Oh by the way, Norse names for the rabbits, Scandinavian names for the lions.
