Ihi (ihi)


The Ihi are the largest tribe of naga in the northeastern desert regions of Gruthe. Their ancestral lands cross Ptarshakk/Thōurraidt into the highlands through into the environs of the Blue Dwarf Kingdom of Illaohh. As they are traditionally a nomadic group their summers are in the highlands and winters into the great Ptsannae Desert.

Naming Traditions

Unisex names


Ihi names are nongendered: no distinction is made between male, female, agender, or nonbinary. Another quirk of nagas is their language is composed of pallendromes. With the subject of the sentence being in the centre of sentences. Whereas other naga languages are multisyllabic, Ihi names are at most disyllabic.   A common format of personal names are in the VCV format. Unsurprisingly, given the name of the tribe, VhV is the most common.   Aba, Ada, Afa, Aga, Ala, Ama, Ana
