About miqo'te names
A single letter and an apostrophe open many results, as in "B'sashuvu" and "V'xonkhexi", while longer pairs like "Rhehveh'a zavrhaku" breathe through soft rh and mh clusters. The leading letter mirrors how tribe and rank get encoded in Final Fantasy XIV inspired catfolk naming. Keep that prefix consistent across characters you want read as kin.
How miqo'te names are built
Miqo'te names build in the style of Final Fantasy XIV's cat clans, marked by an apostrophe near the start that fuses an initial to the rest of the name. The Seeker register opens on a letter-plus-apostrophe form, as in B'sashuvu and V'xonkhexi; the Keeper register uses longer given names with apostrophe-bearing endings like 'ra and 'ir, plus a family name.

Naming notes
The deepest bank holds 67 entries, while several banks hold only one to five entries, so the apostrophe placement is consistent while the surrounding sounds vary. The breathy h-heavy clusters (mh, kh, gl) give the set its feline hiss. Suited to hunters, wanderers, or original cat-clan characters in fan fiction and tabletop play.
