Au Ra naming conventions?

[Michiaiki]

Just wondering if there has been any talk about race specific lore for Au Ra names. I am wanting to change race for the expansion, and honestly, I will likely keep my current name but I am curious what theirs may sound like.

Expect no later than *drumroll* 3.0

But seriously? Probably right before maint for 3.0... my guess

Well we know the name of one Au Ra so far.

Yugiri Mistwalker.

However, the naming conventions could be vastly different for the race and region the developers decide to say where the Au Ra are from. Yugiri may be a special case, as she's from Doma. Her first name is clearly Doman, not specifically Au Ra'n(for example in the Rising Stones there's a Doman Hyuran woman named Higiri).

Her surname is decidedly different than a typical Eorzean name (though it may work for Hyurs, but no one else really), which makes perfect sense because of the regional/cultural distance between Eorzea and Doma.

People from Garlemald also seem to have different naming conventions than Eorzeans, (Gaius Van Baelsar, Livia Sas Junius, Nero Tol Scaeva. I think all 3 are Hyurs). So it is clear that Eorzean Au Ra will most likely have different naming conventions than Doman Au Ra.

All I can really get out of the surname Mistwalker is a person who walks amongst the mist... And Hironobu Sakaguchi's video game studio (which is a clear reference in my opinion; just like the main story quest Let Us Cling Together, which is the subtitle of a Tactic's Ogre game).

So we'll see how they decided to have the Au Ra naming conventions in Eorzea. I don't think we'll be traveling outside of Eorzea in 3.0, so perhaps the Au Ra'n names will be similar to Elezen names, or at least reminiscent of them seeing as how they're like Elezen with horns.

Some people have even been guessing at Au Ra using Dravanian as part of their naming conventions. But nothing official has been said other than "soon" by Fernehalwes... but still no when... many many people have been asking.
