I made name conventions for Vrkhazh people:
Title/Family name/Name/Basic description/Place of Birth/Place of Death/Matronym and Patronym
An example is "Vikim ʾIḥamek ʾAraš-Hijunu ṛ-ʾIṉrōbi Tam-Ḵadač ʾIrad Kaf Šalkam lav ʾIḥamek Harkad" which means "Emperor Arashijunu Ihamek the Strong of Tam-Khadach son of Shalkam Kaf and Harkad Ihamek".
A male child takes the family name of his father while a female child takes the family name of her mother.
The basic description is optional and usually reserved for high-ranking people and historical figures (like the Great Founder of Vrkhazh, Arashijunu). The Place of Death is only used for referencing important historical figures who dies.
Then there is a -nym I have that refers to both parents; "son/daughter of mother X and father Y".

"Turning iron ore into iron swords is a hard process, for one must first dig out the rock, and melt it to refine it, then one must pour that metal into a mould, let it cool a bit, and pound on it while it cools even further. Games are no different." - Ahzoh
