Yes, actually. The main four are Ishgard's High Houses, nobles who can trace their ancestry back to the surviving Knights Twelve who defeated Nidhogg at Haldrath's side. But there are many, many "lesser" noble houses in Ishgard. A list of those we've seen so far in game can be found at the bottom of this post. These other Houses are still considered nobility in Ishgard, but lack the power and position of the four High Houses. More lore about the Ishgardian houses can be found below:

The Elezen are often described as being a proud race. More lore about the Elezen, Duskwight and Wildwood, can be found in the link below:
