Hello!

I'm making a character (a Keleshite Druid) and I decided to use the trait "Keleshite Princess". That got me to look around for the naming conventions for Keleshite Nobles. I found, in Qadira, Jewel of the East, that the naming convention for a noble goes as follows:

Members of the imperial family frequently bear a given name, followed by a form of their mother’s name, a name earned upon reaching adulthood, a name indicating which branch of the imperial family they’re from, and finally the family name al-Parishat.

So, it'd be something like this:
[Name] al-(of, belonging to)[Mother's Name] [Name earned upon reaching adulthood (a title? like goatslayer?)] [Name Indicating which branch of imperial family they belong to(like what?)] al-Parishat(of Nobility?)

Now I've made up a name for my princess:
Shahzadi al-Bahameena 'Abla Kalish al-Parishat

My question, which I hope you can help me with, is the "Name Indicating which branch of imperial family they belong to" I just put in "Kalish", which is the name of the current ruler of Kelesh, but I am unsure if this is correct. I tried looking around for full names of Keleshite nobility and came up blank, is there an example in a novel somewhere? Your help is much appreciated ^_^

Hello!

I'm making a Feyspeaker Duid/Scaled fist Monk that I'm thinking of adding Sorcerer to for those sweet, sweet Arcane spells (Mage Armor, Shield & Gravity bow). My question comes when I was looking to take the sylvan Wildblooded bloodline and couldn't figure out how the Animal Companion progression would work. My Druid has the Feather Domain, so she'll get the animal companion (if I don't go sorcerer) at 5th level and I was planning on taking boon companion to fill out my Animal Companion levels. If I take the sylvan bloodline though, I am able to get a companion at 3rd level AND take boon companion, to cash in early on that Animal Companion action. but here's my dilemma; the Sylvan bloodline gives me the companion at my sorcerer level -3 minimum 1, so when I take Boon Companion does that give me a Companion of lv. 2 (1-3+4) till I hit that 4th level of druid and start adding the second druid lv-3 progression? or does it not go into negatives at all (since i'm only dipping into Sorcerer) and just add levels to give me a full Animal Companion progression (1[sorcerer]+4-3[druid]+4[boon companion])? is the headache worth it? are there any other good bloodlines for a naturey based charisma character to take instead?
