At the top levels of the estates, the Tria nomina system was mostly entrenched by the 1870s. During this time the so-called "Pig Levantine" names began to originate as well. Typically [[Gassavelian people|Gassavelian]] in origin, families would begin to add prestigious [[Latinic people|Latinic]] sounding names in order to sound more prestigious to those unaware of the particulars of the naming system or to those who were unaware of all of the [[Estates of Urcea]]. The most prominent example of such a family are the ancestors of [[James Cossus Reed]], who were [[Ænglish people|Ænglish]] settlers in [[Gassavelia]]. | At the top levels of the estates, the Tria nomina system was mostly entrenched by the 1870s.

The Edsallanus system, popular among aristocrats, scholars, and wealthy bourgeoisie, was never successful among the working classes or the members of the [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal Army]]. Though they had agreed to it at the Great Landsmeet, the system was also not popular among the members of the Gaelic estates, many of whom used their Estate name as their surname. Any momentum the system had was halted by the [[Red Interregnum]]. Regent [[Gréagóir FitzRex]] prohibited the adoption of further tria nominas as part of his overall effort to abolish the [[Estates of Urcea]]. While this prohibition was removed after the restoration and end of the Interregnum, the movement's popularity had faded. There was some renewed interest in it prior to the [[Great War]], but it came to a formal end with the beginning of hostilities. Many families, however, still use the tria nomina adopted during the movement's height. Perhaps the most prominent example is [[House de Weluta]], as the Urcean royals never abandoned the use of the tria nomina following its 1858 adoption. | The Edsallanus system, popular among aristocrats, scholars, and wealthy bourgeoisie, was never successful among the working classes or the members of the [[Royal and Imperial Army (Urcea)|Royal Army]].
