As you can see by his surname I also settled on "F that," and am currently brainstorming ways I can make it work lore-wise for my character. A Seeker/Keeper mix seems like the most obvious explanation, but hell.
Miqo'te raised among other races or outside tribes are known for adopting names. It could also be an alias or a nickname.
However, I'm not so sure about the Mix route in your case, as that usually involves the mixing of naming conventions to create the desired name. For instance, Edgar's birth name uses the Tribal Prefix of Seekers and the Numerical Suffix of the Keepers in combination, resulting in the name, Z'Shira'a (Z=Ziz Tribe, 'A=First Child).
If you've come up with the name on a whim, the Mixed Breed explanation may not work so well.
