Thank you so much for watching this video.
My channel is focused on player perspective content, gameplay, theory’s and importantly game lore for Final Fantasy XIV.
As this channel has grown my goals have evolved but ever do they remain the same, the creation of videos that mean to bring a smile to a viewers face or provide them with even one piece of useful information.
I mean to live up to these goals and the time you have taken to watch my content.

I have a question I been thinking about, in the forum it’s said keeper male take up their mother sur/forename with a added suffix to the end of the fore. So what if a keeper female has a sons with two different males – Do they both get the suffix a or does the first son get it and the second son get the suffix to?
i always feel so bad for the keeper males, they dont even get unique names of their own… their lore in general is just really sad and lonely.
i was wondering- with roegadyn being male exclusive and miqote being female exclusive in 1.0, were there male miqote npcs? i know there was merlwyb at the very least for femroes, but idk about miqote men.
ALSO MERACYDIAN MIQOTE SOUND SOOOO COOL…. i know its only a matter of time before we see meracydia and im SO excited, however long it takes
Great video dude!
The title 'Tia' essentially means no bitches
All the catboys in Sharlayan:
I noticed that the Seekers are more akin to our lions with their tribes. They're more lion than the Hrothgar
Damm. Didn't knew the animal part, Now I feel bad for giving my seeker the name, So'phia Solaris.
but but… why did mine have to be a dodo Y^Y
So to summarize it's:
For Keepers
Given name ' (suffix Male for Keepers) Mothers surname
For seekers
Tribe Prefix ' given name (Fathers name for Female) or (Status in tribe for male)
Refering to a Sun Seeker by just their given name is a form of familiarity and closeness, like calling someone by their first name in Japanese, or giving someone an affectionate nickname in English, or calling them by a shortened pet name version, like how I call my cousin Victoria 'Vicky' for short.
