First a title or name of rank, if a person has achieved note within the Lorath culture, they are given a title. "Xiaah, High Priest, High General, Lumuham" The titles can be give in two different ways. The second part of the name is the formal, on world way to speak to one another. Heavy with vowels and apostrophes. An example would be "Harr'Ikke, Sen'ythy or Lrenc'Cdyn." The third name is a informal off-world used name, normally something significant about the person. "Fate, Destiny, Obelisk, Rain, Breeze, Soul Seeker." They are simple English words. The last name is by far the simplest part. You simply choose which house you are from. Tur'Lista, who is the ruling family. Fyunnen for the warrior caste. Llamenl for the Shaman caste.
