Sastra will accept that people are sometimes called odd things, but if they're something that clearly sounds like a nickname or not the persons actual name, she can get a little suspicious of that characters intents - if they do not want to give away their name it may suggest they do not want to be identified, which could mean all sorts of trouble like about-to-get-stabbed or secretly-running-away-from-people-with-knives. Of course it could also not mean any trouble at all, but in her mind it's better to be a little too cautious than a little too dead.
Also, if someone has a complicated name (So, a whole lot of them roes) she may give them nicknames of herself, even though she just met them. It makes it easier for herself to remember who they are, and occasionally provides for some laughs and interesting situations.
Herself, Sastra isn't her true name - but not out of her own will, she was put in an orphanage before she could yet say her own name properly, and so they named her Sastra. It's only within the past six months that she has managed to reconnect with siblings and thus figured out her birthname. Though she still introduces herself as Sastra, when anyone asks, meaning that only people who know her well and her siblings call her by her original name. It may change in time, it may not ^^
