Overview

Duskaran names follow a hierarchical structure that has developed over eight centuries:

Personal name + kin-[Wind-Kin] + Surnameline name (full formal)
Personal name + Surnameline name (common formal)
Personal name (casual)

    Full formal: Amira kin-Hanga Wekesa Common formal: Amira Wekesa Casual: Amira

    The line name (ukoo) is the family name. It follows the personal name. A few old crew lines still put it first in ceremonies, as on Earth (Wu An); this sounds archaic.
