While we had zip for official lore on naming when I created Aysun, I did notice quite quickly that there were naming conventions in place in the game. I noticed that virtually all the Seekers of the Suns' names began with a letter and an apostrophe, seemed to be very odd/difficult to pronounce, and favored h's.
Soooo I made up a "traditional" name for Aysun, A'eyshn, and said that she used "Aysun" because her traditional name was difficult for people to pronounce properly. The names are pronounced the same to her, one is just the Hyurized-spelling so that it can be read easier by non-Miqo'te. xD Her surname was from her mother because her dad was POS and her mom would never want to pass on his name (surname, I assumed, not forename)! Luckily my assumptions were later alright with the lore.
I got lucky. Not all of us from 1.0 were.
I fully support people utilizing the naming conventions now that they are available to us. If they don't, I like to see reasons why IC!
