The 2015 version is available on Academia (<a href="https://www.academia.edu/15938656/A_Grammar_of_the_Mantharta_Languages_Western_Australia">https://www.academia.edu/15938656/A_Grammar_of_the_Mantharta_Languages_Western_Australia</a>). You see that people are addressed and referred to in a range of ways, including kinship terms, totemic classes, totems, and various kinds of place names (paternal, maternal, own -- there are suffixes used in constructing these) and personal names (it is taboo for one to utter one's own personal name). I briefly mention adaptation to European naming conventions by taking one of these, e.g. patrilineal class totem as a family name.
