All names are adapted into [[Chlouvānem|their language]], and follow its phonological rules and nominal declensions.


Chlouvānem names are made by three different parts: the '''matronymic''' (in Chl. ''nāḍimāvi''), the '''surname''' (''leliēmihaloe''), and one or more '''personal''' (or '''given''') '''names''' (''lilahaloe'', pl. ''lilahalenī''— commonly just ''haloe/halenī''). This is the standard for people everywhere in [[Verse:Chlouvānem Inquisition|the Inquisition]], but note that ethnic ''Bazá'' people from ''Tūnambasā'' diocese may also be called with the standard names for the ''Bazá'' people; anyway in the last two decades the Chlouvānem standard has grown from being used by 25% to 93% of all Bazá people living in Tūnambasā diocese; titular ethnicities in other ethnic dioceses follow the Chlouvānem standard.<br/>

== Surnames (lelyēmihalenī) ==
The surname or ''leliēmihaloe'' (from ''leliēmita'' "family", and ''haloe'' "name") is of newer formation when compared to the matronymic, especially in rural areas. Chlouvānem people have a huge number of surnames, and there are different possible origins. The commonly accepted proportion of Chlouvānem surnames is that about 50% of them are matronymical; 30% are toponymic; 10% are occupational; 6% are cognominal, and the rest are either clan names from other civilizations or of unknown origin (most probably either clan or given names from Chlouvānemized peoples).

===Toponymic surnames===
Toponymic surnames are mostly derived from small places and usually end either in '''-i''' (the genitive form) or '''-(ь)ai''', rarely with '''-ųu'''. Examples include, from common nouns, ''Jāṇyai'', ''Jāṇųu'', ''Amašai'', ''Hali'', ''Paɂītiai''; from proper nouns, ''Kahašai'', ''Pārindāliai'', ''Nurħalini'', ''Kārṣamūli''.

===Other surnames===
===Other surnames===
Other surnames include cognominal ones (''Māhāmanta'' "long nose", ''Tilьpāram'' (← ''taili pārās'' "much hair")), Toyubeshian clan names - especially common among people from the East (e.g. ''Yatakoma'', ''Līkāntām'', ''Putahira'', ''Tandalara'', ''Kašiyota'', ''Yotamyutsu''), and other surnames whose origin is disputed, probably from former given names of other areas, especially from the South (e.g. ''Nāɂahilūma'', ''Ñahanimeh'', ''Hunipaira'', ''Lameihadьleh'').

As with all other types of surnames, they also may have marriage-variable suffixes added, as e.g. in ''Līkāntāmæha'' or ''Putahiræša''.

Variable surnames have three forms: one for all women in the family, one for married men, and one for unmarried men.
Variable surnames have three forms: one for all women in the family, one for married men, and one for unmarried men.


While typically it is the matronymic-derived surnames (and sometimes the placename-derived ones) that are variable, these suffixes have also been applied to other kinds of surnames - an example being the late singer-songwriter Lālašvātyāvi Kāmilñariāh ''Turabayān'', whose unmarried surname was Kašahitræmīs (his mother was called Šulegāvi Kašahitræša ''Lālašvāti''), of clear Toyubeshian origin (cf. the existing, invariable modern surnames Kašahitah and Kašahitra).

In most areas of the Inquisition, men take their wife's surname (in the married male form, if variable) when they marry - so for example a hypothetical Martayināvi Lantakæmīs ''Kāltarvān'' who marries the hypothetical Namihūlšāvi Huliāyæša ''Lairē'' will be known as Martayināvi Huliāyærās ''Kāltarvān'' after marrying. Their son Dalaigin's full name will be Lairyāvi Huliāyæmīs ''Dalaigin''.

In some places, this is not the case, and the husband keeps his birth surname, but if it is variable, it will shift to the married form anyway.

Line 66: Line 66:
Names inherited by the Proto-Lahob culture, or the earliest Chlouvānem names, are usually made by two elements compounded together (a kind of bahuvrihi compound), like for example the male names ''Gāṇakvyāta ''"steel hero" or ''Hånisrajñās ''"friend of toucans", or the female ones ''Martayinām ''"city protector" or ''Ñaiṭasamin'' "star child". There are also names made by a single Chlouvānem word, like ''Lairē ''"sky", ''Yānāh'' “innocence” (both female) or ''Hånia ''"toucan" (unisex but mostly female).

Anyway, possibly the majority of nationwide Chlouvānem names are not inherited from Proto-Lahob, but originally from cultures of the central Lāmiejāya plain in prehistoric times, many without a known meaning. Such names include for example the female ''Hæniląuya ''and ''Namihūlśa'' or the male ''Lælithiam ''and ''Nuikthalin''. Other names with a known origin are for example the female ''Kūldendēla ''or ''Nariekaiṣa'' and the male ''Kāltarvān ''or ''Kāljivaṃṣān'', all of Ancient Yodhvāyi origin (once spoken in the current-day dioceses of Galiākñijātia and Yodhvāya). A few nationwide given names also have Ancient Kūṣṛmāthi or other origins, but they're much rarer.

This is part of a pattern that sees most male nouns being grammatically of lotus gender and most female ones of the parrot one. Only a few nouns are unisex, for example ''Kailnenia'' (though female in the vast majority of cases), ''Terintān'', or those ones formed with unisex names, like all of those with ''-samin'' (child). ''-likā'' or ''-mitā'' are typically used to form female names from male ones, while male ones are formed by removing the final ''-a'' of a female name (if possible) and adding ''-gin''. There are, however, many exceptions to this rule.

Many areas of the Inquisition also have their own "local" names, taken from pre-Chlouvānem local languages; this is particularly common in the East with Toyubeshian names, which often spread outside that area. Special mention also for the Dabuke female names ''Amabu ''and ''Nīmulšāmi'', which have spread outside the local area and are commonly given nationwide.

Foreigners that become Chlouvānem citizens always have a matronymic added, and the same is usually done also for and by people who have business with the Chlouvānem-speaking world or are Yunyalīlti (as, for example, the incumbent Minister of Agriculture of Holenagika, Qyqshdir Hgoabein [ˈqyqsir ˈɣɔbeɲ] is usually referred to as Pålьkāvi Gåbeña ''Khyukṣṭih''). Other people are simply known by their Chlouvānemized names but without an added matronymic - like incumbent Cerian Prime Minister Pétéro Bafín is referred to as Bafīn ''Paṣṭras''.

The Chlouvānem informal name (''laltihaloe'', from ''lalteh'' (friend) and ''haloe'' (name)) is the form of the given name used in many particularly informal settings. As with all things informal in the Chlouvānem-speaking world, there is no uniform rule because they are deeply influenced by the local vernacular and, more often than not, they are never even used when speaking Chlouvānem as such kind of conversations may often be exclusively in the vernacular.<br/>However, there is a simple pattern that can be used in order to derive pan-Inquisitiorial informal names from given names: either the first or the stressed syllable of the name is taken, with optional vowel changes (usually ''a'' to ''æ'', ''æ'' and ''ai'' to ''e'', ''e'' to ''i'', and often ''o'' to either ''a'' or ''u''), and ''-ī'' for female informal names or ''-em'' for male ones. Female names often shift post-tonic velars, ''h'', or ''s'', to palatals.<br/>As different syllables may be taken, there are even for this pattern different possibilities. Some examples (usually, the more common a name is and the more informal forms it has):

* If the person spoken of is respected (of higher rank), then the appropriate formula is used the first time they're mentioned, then the norm is to use a shorter form - in this case, a form like ''yamei Læhimausa murkadhāna'' is accepted, while it is not when speaking directly to that person. The higher rank that person is, usually the longer it takes to completely shift to a shorter form — e.g. while the Great Inquisitor will not be referred to every time as ''nanū aveṣyotāra lallāmaha Hæliyǣšāvi yamei Dhīvajhūyai Lairē camimurkadhāna lāma'', it will not probably get shorter than ''nanū aveṣyotāra yamei lallāmaha'' ([Her] Respectable Most Excellent Highness) or ''nanū aveṣyotāra lallāmaha camimurkadhāna'' ([Her] Most Excellent Highness, the Great Inquisitor);
