I'm not sticking to them for my character at all (Miqo'te with full name Aveline Blue), because I'm not fond of the Miqo'te names. But, I've come up with a plausible in-character explanation for her unusual name.

I think also that if we were to treat the FF14 world as realistic, it would make sense that there would be names borrowed from different racial naming conventions. In FF14 so far the races are not as divided as they were in XI (for instance, none of the city-states are "native lands" to any of the races). There seem to be some cultural divides (like Elezen are supposed to be excellent leatherworkers because of their traditions), but if everyone has been living together it would make sense that some Elezen might want to give their kid a Hyur name, or a Lalafell may name their child after their Miqo'te best friend they've known since childhood.
