I don't think he actually told her a name, otherwise I'm sure she would've mentioned it.... And if you argue that her birth mother's name wasn't relevant to the story/point she was trying to make to Blake, then you can also argue that Summer's name wasn't important, either.... I'm just chalking it up to the fact that Yang either doesn't know her mother's name, or her mother changed her name so many times, that it's impossible to know which one is her "actual" name.

That kinda falls flat as that is an argument of inclusion, which by that indicator would suggest she doesn't know her dad's name, it similarly wasn't important. Just because she said one or two doesn't mean she needed to say all. It's a courtesy, not a necessity.
