It seems like Viis names are basically 2-3 syllables with the last syllable being the tribe/clan/group ending (ille, et, na, etc.)

That said, there seems to be an usually high number of "-na" Viis outside of Rak'Tika compared to the others. Seems like the "-na" tribe might've left en masse for some reason, with a few electing to stay behind. Could be as simple as a big group of them opting to stick together when they left.

Maybe Lyna can give us more details on that later on. If there's even a major reason for it.
Almost every Viis we encounter(and all of the ones in Rak'tika as far as I could tell) use Veena customization options, while Lyna, insofar as I could tell, uses Rava options. While that's likely just a coincidence, it could be a clan split. We know that the Emperor split his servants between guardians in the east and the priesthood in the west, and that the priesthood was effectively destroyed during the invasion 3,000 years ago. If the priesthood were the Rava equivalent, it would explain the difference in naming and the near-absence of Viis without nearly invisible eyebrows.
