So, a gladiator Mi'qote with the name "Z'khuva Kenshi (swordsman in Japanese (or something similar)), which is(was) raised by a Lalafell, makes sense? :O

With the amount of Seeker RPers (which is already pretty conflicting with the Seeker lore, since they're supposed to be small in numbers) and each tribe only having a few Nunh's at most, things get confusing otherwise when you have two dozen Nunh RPers from one tribe. Not to mention, things would get pretty incestuous otherwise, and just make RP backstories difficult.
As for being adopted by Lalafell, it's possible (though you'd have to ask yourself why she would be adopting a Miqo'te, particularly in a society where mixed race relations seemed to be frowned upon) and plenty of people do it, but because so many people do it, it's become something of a cliche in the RP community.
I guess many people like Miqo'tes because they're cat people. And people like cats. And why adoption is a cliche in the RP community, is I guess because protagonists in pop culture are usually orphans or adopted. Or perhaps they can't think of a good name for a character of a given race and decided to have their character raised by another race? Or perhaps they like the aesthetics of the race but the lore isn't their thing, and I completely understand them (imagine being a Seeker female staying faithful to the lore, you'll be one of 10-50 females in the sect who mated with that one Nunh once or twice).
And the reason why the Lalafell would adopt a Miqo'te is because of sympathy over knowing that my Miqo'tes sect got completely wiped out when I was still an infant, would that be lore friendly though? I chose Lalafell because they seem to be the "kindest" looking race out of the bunch.
