There are some RPers who create a character and start playing the game before learning the lore - they like to find out from within the game itself what the world is like. These players may not realize that they are not following the naming conventions for their race until too late - still, that doesn't mean they aren't good roleplayers.
My characters (all 2 of them on Gilgamesh so far) do not completely follow the naming conventions. Talathar Khalynn is a female Lalafell, and I dare say I roleplay pretty good. I know the name doesn't follow Lalafell naming rules, but my excuse is that she was an orphan with amnesia, raised by a Hyur woman after the Calamity. (In reality, I just wanted to use the name Talathar again... >_>)
