Old Shalaian/Names

Shalaian transcriptions of English names normally use the closest approximation to the Conservative RP pronunciation (e.g. Káisi 'Casey'), but are sometimes somewhat etymologically informed (e.g. Għídna 'Edna', from Hebrew *ʕidnā). This page describes native Shalaian names which are sometimes used.

Structure

Most people who use Shalaian names either use a new Shalaian given name and keep their original surname, or use a full name consisting of 3 to 5 Shalaian names. There are no true family names in Shalaian as used in AETHER, since families as we know them no longer exist as social units; however, one may choose to take a partner's surname if they have one. Some people may give themselves invented Shalaian family names.
