Ah, naming. A joy as well as a curse. I like to call it the bane of my existence because I can take *forever* naming a character sometimes.
Nahare is my main character. She's a Miqo'te, so her full tribal name is X'nahare Rahz. Her heritage is from the Lynx tribe, and I liked the way Nahare sounded, so it stuck. It's pronounced "na-hah-ray." However, she hates Seeker tradition and only introduces herself as Nahare. She did recently become married, so her name is now Nahare Mergrey.Â
As for my Elezen, he's Lucien Chevalier. Lucien means "light" and he's my Chaotic Good character. Chevalier means "knight" or "chivalrous man." My third character is Y'tahli Ashake, a tribal Seeker. She hails from the Jaguar tribe, and again, I liked the way Tahli sounded, so I chose it.
Really, I adhered to the naming conventions for all of my characters with the exception of Nahare. That woman likes to buck tradition and go against the grain as much as possible. Sometimes I can be silly with my names, but I save that for when I'm not roleplaying. Roleplaying will always have serious names for me.
