Gale took the Borel name when he married Aymeric. Reinhardt isn't his real surname anyway.
Officially Arthur and Cevilia have the Borel name. When they travel, they use Gale's actual family name, Rainteau, because Reinhardt or Borel would be too recognizable with Gale's legacy.

Some other fun family information!
Y'shtola and T'kebbe both had good relationships with their parents and decide to keep their last name when taking Mir's, so it's Y'shtola Teiwaz-Rhul and T'kebbe Teiwaz-Morh.
Khloe and Zhloe dropped their last name and took Mir's.

If he has pre-purchased clothes, he'll edit them as he likes as well.

This question is more aimed at you, the creator! What are some canon scenarios in the game where you reworked or reinterpreted the details because it didn't line up with your worldbuilding, oc's lore, or for any other reason?

Gale had a crush on Thancred but thought he died post-ARR.
Gale also spent a night with Haurchefant but he broke it off because Haurchefant was clearly more interested in Nagi. He would take the crippling loneliness so his best friend could have a good companion.

Did you just move on from the ship or did you actually have it break up officially?
