Although the generational divide was a major element of the finished product in both gameplay and story, it was not part of the original concept that became ''Genealogy''. According to Narihiro, the idea of adding an element of romance was proposed partway through by Kaga based on the popularity of romance games at the time. The idea of inheritance based on variable parents, Narihiro suggests, also derives from Kaga's fondness for horse racing (probably by analogy with how retired champion race horses are used to breed more horses).<ref name="kantopia1" /> Once the second generation became part of the plan, Kaga planned ''Genealogy'' to be a three-part work, with a third segment following Seliph's story. Its intent was to directly confront and analyze the moral issues raised by the rest of the story and properly resolve loose threads. However, time constraints forced Intelligent Systems to cut this part entirely, with the game ending with Seliph's story.<ref name="amielleon=2" />

During its development, ''Genealogy'' was tentatively titled ''Fire Emblem: Heir of Light'' (Japanese: {{hl|ファイアーエムブレム 光をつぐもの|Faiāemuburemu hikari o tsugumono}}), a title which even appeared on a publicly released promotional leaflet for the game (although the poster did mark it as only a temporary name). The final release still has an appearance of this subtitle, as the name of [[Heir of Light|Chapter 6]], and the title was also used as the title of [[Fire Emblem: Heir of Light|a manga adaptation of the game]].
