Confusion on Keeper of the Moon naming conventions |

I'm a bit concerned about the naming conventions for female Keepers of the Moon as stated in the lorebook. It seems to be completely contradictory to the naming conventions we have had until now, only for females.

The males still follow the pattern of <name of the mother> followed by the corresponding male offspring number letter for the first name, and sharing the last name of the mother. 

The old naming conventions said that the same way, females got their last names from their mother, and their first name is their own. The one exposed in the lorebook seems to say that the first name is the mother name, and the last name is the given name. Which makes absolutely zero sense, and as they pointed out in the lore panel, the book still contains bugs and mistakes. 

I'm inclined to think that way... Or I hope so.

Source : it would seem they inverted Okhi and Nbolo...
