While this would make sense, sadly the game has made a hash of this particular theory with the introduction of Hilda, the Mongrel. Her mother was Hyur, and Hilda has distinctly pointed Elezen ears. As others have pointed out, she is this game's obligatory half-elf, much like Lilisette was in FFXI. And, also like Lilisette, she's the only half-breed visible in the whole game, when logically (given all the mixed-race romances we see among NPCs) they should be all over the place.
