Up until awhile ago, all male Vulcan names started wuth S, ended with k
and had 3 letters in between.  Female Vulcan names began with T' and had
a single syllable following, not necessarily 3 letters (e.g. T'Pring).
Saavik was brought up as something of a slave well outside of Vulcan
society.  Ordinary Vulcan conventions do not apply to her.  But, as she
is a member of Starfleet, their conventions do apply to her, such as
the title "mister" for any officer, used most frequently when a subordinate
officer is being addressed.
