This is just my take on this, but...

Quote:con·ven·tion
kənˈven(t)SH(ə)n/
noun

  1. a way in which something is usually done, especially within a particular area or activity.
    "the woman who overturned so many conventions of children's literature"


Key word, there: Usually

There is no such thing as a lore-breaking name, just a typical way within the lore of naming people for each species. That said, try and give a reason for a differentiation. Maybe your character is a Miqo'te and is like mine, Edgar, who was raised by Hyur. Maybe your character is a Roegadyn that grew up alone and had parents who died before giving a name. Maybe your character and their family didn't give a crap for conventional naming. 

If the reasoning is good, most people won't take issue. And the people that do, I wouldn't bother roleplaying with.
