I just realized that I had actually made a mistake on the wiki. Nanion's surname is not D'Or. Only Faene's are. Nanion of Dorne may not even be related to Faene. I thought about it for some time, and this is what I came up with:

Nanion of Deltora's ancestors on Dorne did not have the surname D'Or. However Nanion of Dorne was the leader of Fleet. I wonder how that had happened. Meanwhile Ethena and Juste D'Or, who had been the leaders of Fleet before Nanion of Dorne, were the parents of Faene D'Or. Ethena of Deltora is the descendant of Faene D'Or, so the surname came from her. I think. So when the people of Dorne came to Deltora, they built a city and named it D'Or after Faene and her parents. But does this mean that Nanion of Deltora has no family/blood relation to Fane D'Or? Man, all these Nanions are confusing :P Or maybe Nanion and Ethena are not really direct descendants of Nanion and Faene, and those are just very common names in Fleet?

What do you think? I mean, if Nanion was a descendant of Nanion of Fleet and we assume that he had some kind of relation to Faene, and if Ethena is a direct descendant of Faene, then wouldn't that make Nanion and Ethena of Deltora related? That kind of relationship would be a little odd to show in a children's fantasy novel, wouldn't it? I really don't know what to make of all this. All we know for sure is that Nanion and Ethena of Deltora are descendants of the people of Fleet.
