There is plenty of lalafells in Limsa, so yes! If she is in the Mists, that means she is an adventurer (which is a profession, and indicates a certain status: money or potential money, freedom...).
A lot of people don't necessarily use their nameplate as their true names. Myself tried to follow the naming convention when I created my character, but after a few months I grew unsatisfied with it and tried to twist it into something way more like I envisioned it lore wise. With that in mind, you can definitely say that your non lalafellin name is a handle of sorts. Maybe given to her by buddies from the Maelstrom? It might be the source of an interesting story actually: where and why did they give her that nickname? What is the meaning behind? Does your character likes it, or hates it? Or maybe she hates her real name?
If it's Julius Maximus, then it definitely sounds like a garlean name, slightly distorted since it lacks the last name particle (Like, Julius zos Maximus, etc). Could it be a mockery? Or just say that your nameplate is totally out of character and your character gives her real name to people she meets? Either way is fine, but the good thing with nicknames is that you can have the best of both worlds: you keep your handle and incorporate it into the story of your character, and you also get to find a nice lore friendly lalafell name.Â
I can also totally see someone being blunt, even unconsciously, being part of the maelstrom. It meshes well with it, since, you know, pirates and stuff, skulls and crossbones and all that.
Also, quick note on lore: if your character is an adventurer (since she lives in the Mist), then she isn't properly part of the Maelstrom, but like any adventurers, can definitely work for them on a daily basis. There is also the road where you say that your character actually lives in Limsa or whatever fancies you, and your Mist house is just used as a placeholder for that. Or maybe it's just OOC. Â As I said, there is not a lot of limits on what you can find around that.
