Narrative has ties to Unicorn, but Narrative's cast itself really had little connection to Tomino's.

Gundam X had "Newtypes" in spite of being an AU with an all new cast, rather than dodging the name/concept.

Although judging by Gquuuuux, if X were made nowadays they'd just straight make it alt.UC rather than having to rename/redesign the characters.

Pic related being early designs for X's grunts before they threw away the UC names.
