At the beginning, Asta's Son doesn't even have a name. Do you think this is unusual? How important is your name, and what do you think it says about you?
To me names are important for their intent. So if someone had no officially name, but everybody called them something (like Asta's Son, or Astason), and then they chose a name for them-self, the name they chose would be much more meaningful than what everybody had called them. Personally, I always liked the idea of getting your name when your older, rather than at birth, because then you know who you are. Make any sense?
