    The naming conventions alone will keep those of us that love lore occupied the entire day on the 27th, it's actually good that they're holding it back until that day. I just hope Rava's naming convention actually has some meat to it and not just "they just like 4 letter names that sound nice," that's very shallow but most likely what it looks like will happen since the only other Rava name we know besides Fran is Lyna.

    Au Ra naming conventions were originally released late. So if they're actually released on time, we should probably see something by Monday or Tuesday. If they're delayed again, we might not see them until EA, official launch, or somewhere inbetween. Unfortunate.

    Lyna is a character native to the First Shard, so that's not indicative of playable Viera names. Based on media tour footage we've seen of the Crystarium, we know that all of the First's equivalents have different naming conventions from the Source. (Ex: Drahn have names like Philline and Mystral have names like Mao-Ladd.)

    Powerful. Really looking forward to Rava's real naming conventions, we'll find out by Thursday or Friday.

    I know it would keep people occupied, but I'd really like to think of my name a few days ahead, and purchase the name change early. That way I don't have to log out and back in during the early access rush.

    I'm already purchasing a fantasia early, but until I know of the naming conventions I'm holding off on buying a name changing token. I do like lore friendly names, or at least lore hybrids where one part of the name goes with the lore, but the other doesn't. Being part of the game world is what I like.
