Naming Nitpickery

[Bront]

I'll update the character thread eventualy

Members of dragonmarked houses are First Last d'House (though Last is usually omitted except within a house; there are multiple families within every dragonmarked house). i.e. Merrix d'Cannith

No non-nobles have ir' names.
No non-members of dragonmarked houses have d' names.

Apendix to "City of Towers" by Keith Baker adds a bit to this (on page 332.) The "d'" indicates a Dragonmark. The example given is that Merrix d'Cannith has a dragonmark, but Heldoran Cannith does not.

This means my non-dragonmarked character in my current in-person game needs to doctor his last name...

While I'm thinking of it, would it be preferable to change D'Aundair to el'Aundair to avoid the similarity to d' names?
