The way I've learned is to sort of follow the golden rule of "don't be a dick."
I know most people don't have any problems with nobility in your character so long as it's sort of just...logical and not all god-moddy, if that makes sense?
If your character has some wealth or title, that's probably okay. But I don't think it's generally approved of if you try to be the long lost son of Gaius and you own the deeds to half of Eorzea.
Using my own character as an example (though it isn't up anymore, as I'm adjusting the writing on the wiki), Ophelia is technically a noble. Her family's status and wealth come from their hand in the fishing markets in Limsa. They aren't the richest-of-the-rich and don't have any extreme ties or control of anything, but around Limsa at the very least, her namesake might get her some favors.
