Let's imagine Taiyang wanted a son, but got Yang instead and was like "She's beautiful. Screw it, it's not a boy, but I'm naming my baby Yang anyway!"

There are plenty of people in real life who get named after a parent, hence them having to introduce themselves as Bob Smith, Snr. and Bob Smith, Jr. Instead of naming her Taiyang, Jr., he named her Yang.
