While it's not the main point of your post, actually a lot of the Ishgardian characters have blue eyes - it seems to be a family trait for the Fortemps and Haillenarte families, and there are others as well.

Outside of Ishgard, it's maybe less common (Guydelot from the bard quests is the only one I can think of) but we haven't had a lot of 'important' Wildwood NPCs either. Most characters I can think of have brown or gold eyes.
