Also with the Eurekan weapons(Stormblood), the naming convention manifests twice, once at the start and again at the Hydatos stage. Idk. I'm going completely off memory. But like, the DRG spear eventually becomes the Daboya, and that's an Empyrean weaponskill spear from the alternate upgrade path through The Walk of Echoes rather than through Abyssea in FFXI, resulting in a weaker weapon but granting access to its powerful WS.

I guess in Endwalker the trend continues with job AF armor referencing item level AF armor from XI in addition to the AF weapons granted by the MSQ this time around. Though those aren't the actual relics.

The trend could still pop up again at the very end of the Manderville line, I guess. We'll see.
