Hœmmé (hœme)

Believed to be descended from Northern Yssians, but assimilated into the Qh'Raa tribes and adopting Raachern as their mother tongue. The Hœmmé dialect tends to archaic, more traditional forms and variants and is called, unimaginatively, Hœmmé-Raachern. The majority population in the Yellow Walled Cities of Hœm, but known to be open, friendly, and welcoming to all.

Naming Traditions

Family names

Traditionalist Hœmmé tend to have Yssian-sounding names, or animal and plant names in Raachern, ultimately derived from Old Yssian clans.   However, the majority of Hœmmé use toponyms of the Qh'ènnish variety when necessary to distinguish. Otherwise patronyms/matronyms are used, in the Qh'ènnish format: t' of, d'/dā son of, q'/qā daughter of.   Given names are borrowed from any of the local languages and subject to fashion trends.
