Miqo'te naming conventions for different Seeker tribes

[Iscah]

Pretty sure it would depend on the dad.
If he's a 'tia vs a Nunh.
If he's a 'tia I imagine he takes the mothers name.
If he's a Nunh I'd bet he takes after the big shot Nunh at the center of the tribe.

You say that like it's no big deal.

Remember: a tia (no apostrophe) is by definition a non-breeding male. By their tribal rules they should inherently not be having kids - that much is clear.

What we don't know and can only speculate about are the cultural implications of breaking that taboo. It's inevitable that it happens sometimes - though clearly not that often or the whole tribe structure is going to fall apart pretty quickly. Most likely there's some kind of consequence if they get found out - the only question is how dark you want to get about it. Death? Exile? An expectation that they're now honour-bound to form their own tribe now? Do the couple elope before anyone can find out? Does the mother quietly pretend it's the nunh's child and hope nobody notes the resemblance to the real father?

Whatever the naming conventions are going to be in a situation, it's not just "take the mother's name" - we have that much from the link I posted earlier.

While not impossible (people can do what they want with their names), a Seeker of the Sun choosing his mother's name to be his last, would amount to shunning his culture and adopting the rules of the Keepers of the Moon. There will be some Seekers of the Sun who will respect this, but others who frown upon it.
