Your reason is not more valid than mine, Origin doesn't mean much. But I agree I suspect He is a half breed as well. Names don't mean anything, there are many cases where an individual has a name that would suggest he was of a different race. Like Brand-Shei, like Aventus Aretino, like Wulf, like the others that I said before, heck there was one character from Morrowind that had a Goblin name. Names don't mean anything when it comes to determining race.

Yes it does. Repeating your own argument doesn't get you anywhere. While I agree there are exceptions, those are, as I said previously, rare, compared to the "lore accurate" names. And how can origin be anymore valid than names? That's almost contradicting yourself.
