........ so, why in Quest does Taita give Fenn her name, saying it was the baby name of Lostris?
Is this a mistake by Wilbur Smith, or am I just not getting it?

Among his many talents, engineer might be foremost. He designed and constructed a Bow of unusual power - I believe he called it, Lanata.
Fenn became Taita's lover; it would be natural for him to call her Lanata - in memory of his first love (again).
