People should just play the improved Night Elves - the Horde ones, the Nightborne…
Moon Priestess Amara is the first Moon Priestess that new Night Elf players meet. She’s not a major character, but she is definitely one with a special place for people who played NElf since Vanilla.
After every bit of bullsh-t that Blizzard has thrown at the Night Elves since Cataclysm, would you really be surprised if this was just more of the same? Because treating it like an overreaction is ignoring just how often this garbage actually did happen.
It’s Blizzard’s own fault they aren’t paying attention to the effects their decisions have on the community.

We don’t have evidence to suggest they are the same person.
I’ve just checked WoWpedia, which could be wrong - but it states on Amara Lunastar’s profile “Not to be confused with Moon Priestess Amara.”
Or imagine waiting for some context instead of seeing one (rather common even) name being reused for a datamined NPC and going on a huge tirade about how you have been personally wronged on a level nobody could ever begin to understand.
Because turns out it’s a child with cancer you ended up 
ing on like a real 
. On the bright side, the player of Lunastar got a cool bengal tiger mount they’ve always wanted.
The amount of victim complex with night elf stans is pretty staggering

disgusting betrayal of the kaldorei - first being killed by the Horde, now turned into a statue?!

They literally reused the name of one of the main racial leaders (Moira) for random nobody NPCs. Reusing another common name for another NPC? No no noooo!
Ohhh! Isn’t that the one who was added and no-one knew exactly why so many assumed she was just for Hallows End(Because she had a more San’layn-appareance then other undead Night Elves) but the Night Elf fans started to go ape-turd anyways? o.O
I remeber that! Sad for the kid, though! D:
Training my Blood Elf paladin to be able to unlock the Nightborne now; gotta get my Night Elf Warlock somehow, amirite?! 
I mean I’ve been playing Kaldorei for ages now; but we see multiple times the same names in the game. And honestly; if people would’ve just looked into it more, her more san’layn appearance(instead of Death Knight/Dark Ranger/Dark Warden) should’ve been a dead give-away there was more to this then Blizzard trying to screw over the Kaldorei again :I
NOW THIS IS SOMETHING TO COMPLAIN ABOUT!1!!!11!!ONE!
Nah, i’m just kidding… Cool for the kid! 
And Calia Hastings in Theramore, if you remember her?

ANd you know it!
Yeah, they’re not. People were just wrong. I’m just saying why their reaction makes sense, given how often this sort of thing comes around.
Do you think anyone was surprised to learn that, of the four Alliance capital cities, the one to be destroyed would be Darnassus?
You mean the way that Sylvanas fans are rationally waiting for her master plan to be revealed and prove she was the real hero all along, and nobody acts as though all Horde players have been collectively physically assaulted by Ion Hozzikostas? 
So what about a Night Elf and Blood Elf sharing the same surnames? Maybe like Anaya Dawnrunner and the Farstrider and Lieutenant Dawnrunner in Eversong.
Nobody’s contesting that so I don’t know how that’s relevant at all to the topic. I roll 1d20 to block your deflection.

‘y-you too’ is about as weak an argument as you can get.
There’s a particular name for the fallacy but it’s in Latin which is super hard to understand

It is quite relevant, since your argument was that Night Elf players are somehow unique in this matter.
Gamers, having an overwrought and volatile reaction to their own imagined outcome of a yet-unconfirmed, or even released, piece of fiction? Clearly a unique development, never before seen!
Yes, night elf players. Nobody talked about Sylvanas stans my guy.
