The Nords are what the Atmorans called themselves after a few centuries on Tamriel. Wasn't it just a name change? Not much evolution could go by after so brief a time (unlike the Bretons who spent millenia breeding with elves) I don't see a reason why any race would just change their name without reason. Last time I checked the only reason why racial names are changed is because of clear differences between the previous and the next race, so there had to be some.
