"Guardians of Azeroth" is a mod with a worldwide development team, based on the Warcraft universe by Blizzard Entertainment. In this mod, our team is working to recreate the world of Azeroth in all of its glory, particularly focusing on the story of the classic Warcraft strategy games and World of Warcraft Classic. In this mod, you will be able to assume the role of one of the human kings, elven counts, or murloc chieftans in order test your luck in the quest for bringing Azeroth under your heel! You can restore justice to Azeroth, plunge the world into the chaos and fulfill the prophecy that is the Hour of Twilight, or burn it all in the name of Sargeras. If that is not your style, you can also choose to indebt every living realm on Azeroth to your wealthy Goblin cartel. Every decision is yours to make!
"Anduin" and "Lothar" are both given names, which is why he's been sometimes addressed as "Sir Lothar" or "Lord Lothar" in the books.
The House name should be "Arathi", with Lothar having a lineage that dates back to the High Kings of Arathor, potentially with him having claims to (non-existent) e_arathor or even k_stormwind.
"Anduin" is Lothar's first name, and "Lothar" is his last name. The examples given in your post are more about his last name. And we used it as the name of the house. The House Arathor's times have passed, so we decided to single out the House Lothar as the separate from the dynasty of the High Kings of Arathor.
But you can't address somebody as "Sir Lastname". "Sir" should be used specifically with a given name.
Lothar is noted as "the last of Arathi", even though if it was said about the tribe, there'd be other descendants among the people of Stromgarde and Stormwind, meaning: "the last of Arathi" means the last of Arathi dynasty.
We've had discussions about this on Scrolls of Lore, and looked at how the way Lothar's names are used throughout novels and game manuals.
Hm... ok. Could you please give a link to the topic on Scrolls of Lore where this question was discussed. Just because it might be good to understand how does Sir Lothar's names work =D
The problem is that guys from Blizzard have already called him "Sir Lothar" and "Sir Anduin Lothar", consequently, they made a mistake. That's why we do not want to change his name until Blizzard give the community the official info about using the Lothar's name.
P.S. Also we have things like "Lord Lastname" or "Sir Lastname" in Warcraft - just remember Genn Greymane or Lothar himself.
Actually, scratch our discussions, I checked out old tweets of Loreology, and Sean said that Lothar is a surname, so that's a Blizz Historian confirmation... Even though he calls himself "Sir Lothar" here:

Sorry, and carry on. I guess we could say that "Lothars" are a cadet house of Arathi Dynasty? Something like that.
(Lord Lastname is indeed a common form, unlike Sir/Ser, but w/e)
Then again, in the followup tweet he said to me that it was his personal opinion and not actual canon.
Anyway, do what you like. There's a few projects we have there on early Warcraft lore, like Ramses's take, or Marthen's Historian take on Warcraft, and people have treated Lothar as both a cadet house name and a given name. Sorry for bothering you.
an awesome idea i would love to see. Keep up good work!!
