Has anyone noticed that there are similar names or situations between the two worlds of Space and Thedas? Post them here!

The one's I've noticed:

Mordin Solus= Solas
Fade (Harkin) = The Fade
Quarian= Qunari with a missing "A"

Do they do this on purpose? What other similarities have you found?

Names get re-used. Names get slightly changed and used elsewhere. I do it all the time in my different tabletop rpg worlds. It's no big thing unless it happens significantly more often.
