Varus, his name, and the Darkin

So Varus's lore was updated some time ago, and I loved it, I think his lore now is so interesting and done very well. I like that he is now a Darkin, one of the three in the game currently, but there's one issue with Varus. Unlike the other Darkin, Varus has only one a in his name which doesn't follow the pattern that the other two follow. Aatrox has two a's in his name, and so does Rhaast, so wouldn't it make sense If Varus's name was just changed to Vaarus? It follows the pattern with the Darkin and makes sense, so I wonder why it hasn't been changed yet. So if anyone comes across this post, I wanna know what you have to say. Hopefully it reaches someone within Riot who can inform others and possibly make this change, which would be awesome. Thanks, Riot!

The double a is just a meme.

Its easily possible that the double A is just something used for red darkins like Rhaast and Aatrox.

Double A seems to be a trait shared between Rhaast and Aatrox, probably because they are related in some way, maybe as family. Rhaast seems to know Aatrox from before, and it seems that there is something going between them, but they don't share the same familiarity with Varus, whom Rhaast calls Demon Pants.

This might be explained in Aatrox's lore update, or maybe in the lore of Varus's sister
