The ' was a thing for void creatures like rek'sai,vel'koz,kha'zix, but actual humans who have interacted with the void have normal names like Kassadin/malzahar,so my question is, why is she named Kai'sa and not Kaisa or a completely different name altogether?
Bukets5 votesMy guess is that she stopped using her actual name and instead goes by the name of the void symbiote in order to avoid/forget her human side
GreenLore1 votesWell there are several possibilities:
2.She adopted the name after she became lost in the void,maybe it holds some sort of meaning in the ancient shuriman tongue?
3.The name might actually be a combination of her old name and the symbionte?
Zed genius1 voteswait she is kassadin's daughter?
Bukets1 votesProbably, kassadins lore talks about his daughter being taken by the void and she is the 'daughter of the void'
GreenLore1 votesIts not confirmed yet,but it seems kinda obvious. I mean: 1.her name is "daughter of the void" and "kassadins daughter" was a common fan demand. 2.she is someone who was lost in the void for a long time,just like Kassadins daughter 3.She managed to survive in the void and probably even came back and Swain references "the girl who came back" in a taunt for Kassadin 4.her name sounds similar to the first part of Kassadins name 5.The roadmap included a line about there being a playstyle for carries that has been "null" for quite some time,referencing Kassadins joke 6.Kassadin received a small lore update that actually made his daughter central to his character,so Riot hasn't forgotten about her either.
Somebody Love Me1 votesIn her quotes she outright confirms Kassadin is her father

wait she is kassadin's daughter?
No, it's straight confirmed by her quotes, saying he's familiar, and mentioning her father being near when spawning with one on the enemie team, also mentioning that it's not the reunion she was hoping for. the quotes pretty much straight out her as his daughter. not to mention her looking like him "Pre void kassadin skin"
JooshBox1 votesMaybe she adapted her name from Kaisa to Kai'sa to better fit in with the creatures of the void. Probably will learn more once the short story drops.
GLurch1 votesWe don't know her lore yet. Just because she looks like a human doesn't have to mean she is one.
Zed genius1 votesi'm quite sure I saw somewhere that she is human for the most part
GLurch1 votesTo survive among predators, Kai’Sa became one. Stranded for years with no hope of rescue, Kai’Sa endured through sheer will and a symbiotic second skin adapted from a living Void creature. Now the Daughter of the Void emerges an apex hunter torn between two worlds: the one that birthed her, and the one that made her.
Is all we got of her story so far. To be honest, it doesn't sound very clear to me, so I'd rather wait till the full story is out before making assumptions.
GreenLore1 votesWell it does say that she was "stranded for years,with no hope of being rescued"so she is definetly not native to the void.
6FlagsFunnelCake1 votesMaybe 'sa is part of her suit''s name, like Rek'sai and the Xer'sai
Ahri Baka1 votesBecause she was born in the Void , Malzhar and Kassadin names aren't with ' because they weren't both there
Mig892 votesIn her bio it says she wasnt born in the void
Camille Ferrøs1 votesHow do you think how did the creatures got their names ¿ icathians named them soo kassadin being shuriam they have the same accent .
