- Adetsib names?
Structure
Eevo names normally consist minimally of name + surname; the surname is inherited from the father. Zero or more middle names may be used between the name and the surname.
Notwithstanding the above, a person is usually known by his given name and surname.
All married persons retain their original surnames. [There is no legal concept of marriage in modern Eevo-speaking societies, in fact.]
Given names
- Reduce proportion of Easter eggs
- Need some compounds
- Adapt Netagin names

Surnames
Common elements for surnames include:
- -on = adjectival suffix
- cooð X = "son of X"
- gel X = "from X"
- -ind = often found in aristocratic names; from Old Eevo feind 'clan'
- -ter = Clofabic; ~ Clofabosin -terol
- riþ X = son of X (Netagin)
Forms of address
Common modern Eevo forms of address include:
- Bandwr (/pantur/, abbrev. Bn') = Mr. (for an adult male)
- Craimb (/kʰraimp/, abbrev. Cr') = -kun (form of address for a male minor)
- Sgial (/skĩ/, abbrev. Sg') = Miss (for females of all ages, regardless of marital status; there is no equivalent of "Mrs.")
- Nwsíd (/nuˈsid/, abbrev. Nsd') = Dr.
- [Þwzehóom] (abbrev. Þzh') = approximately "Honorable" or "Esteemed"; used of a person of especially high rank
Using Bandwr, Craimb or Sgial with the person's surname is used for strangers or higher-ranking people.
Using Bandwr, Craimb or Sgial with the person's given name is a way of addressing or referring to people of equal or slightly lower rank while maintaining some distance from that person. In modern times it is still common in some institutions such as schools and universities (this is how students are addressed by other students, instructors and professors) but is becoming less common.
