Is Kai a common name in Ionia...

...or is Irelia's brother part of Varus right now?

I just noticed the names Irelia says while going for a long distance

Father, mother, Zelos, O-ma, Ohn, Kai, little Ruu...

And realized I already saw that name somewhere. Together with Valmar, Kai is currently "in" Varus right now. He also mentioned he is Navori in the comics. Is it just coincidence?

I forgot the red post but it was stated along time ago that Kai is the John of Ionia, means, its a common name there.

“ai” is a common vowel used in a lot of words and names (taken from old words).

Shuriman favors short words and then combines multible words to create new meanings —sometimes only vaguely related to the root word.

Sadly, Irelia's brother's name is "Kye" which is an alternate way to spell the common Ionian name "Kai", the two are not the same person.

Trust me, I would've loved some connections, it could've had a lot of potential if left open.

It might be the same character. I mean Irelia would likely think that Kai died in that attack.

And the plot thickens

Nice catch, by the way. I didn't even notice she said Kai until now.
