Question about Horns / Antlers

[Iscah]

I wonder how much cultural mixing the Elezen and the Hyur had since they still maintain separate naming conventions and do not mix their races even after the establishment of Gridania.

While you can certainly take it as a worldbuilding thing, this is more of an issue with the ARR approach to naming conventions (and still is a similar issue with some accents, like Lyna) - they were applied to races rather than logical cultures so in every location you get Hyur with the same English names whether they're in Ishgard or Ul'dah -- they don't even mix well with Highlanders even when inhabiting the same areas.

Honestly, Gridanian hyur and elezen not sharing any names makes the most sense to me out of any place with cross-cultural sharing, because they're both very independent forms of prideful. Even the Wildwood that went with the hyur in going above-ground would've been against cultural mixing like that, while the hyur were definitely going with the settler vibe of 'this is our land now, you're conforming to us'. In contrast, the drahn and galdjent that share naming schemes on the First allied out of both being in a weak spot and having a common enemy.
