What's that? His name isn't traditionally appropriate? Pfft, that's because most of you can't even pronounce our names right. This is close enough for you.
I consider his real name to be K'Swhift Tia, but after leaving his tribe some of the, um, work he's done he picked up being called Nightclaw and took it as a name. As for his first name? Swift is essentially how it's going to sound when pronounced by non-miqo'te.
Also, I would note for folks debating this:
"In colloquial speech amongst close friends and companions, sometimes the tribe letter will be dropped from the first name."
