Some people spell it axum, some people spell it aksum, but if it was to be spelt how we pronounce it, it should technically be axsum.

How come they didn't mention what happened to lalibela and Axum during 14th century?
..Would've made it a better episode.

 

[Prince of Lasanod]

"The chronicle of Imam Ahmed's invasion of Ethiopia is depicted in various Somali, Ethiopian and other foreign sources. Imam Ahmed campaigned in Ethiopia in 1531, breaking Emperor Lebna Dengel's ability to resist in the Battle of Amba Sel on October 28. The Somali army of Imam Ahmad then marched northward to loot the island monastery of Lake Hayq and the stone churches of Lalibela. When the Imam entered the province of Tigray, he defeated an Ethiopian army that confronted him there. On reaching Axum, he destroyed the Church of Our Lady Mary of Zion, in which the Ethiopian emperors had for centuries been crowned."

I hear that's why some highlanders will have Muslim family names because of this period.

They do not have Muslim names. Anyone who does is a either a revert or a Muslim, vice versa. And + this was ~~6 centuries ago, no one keeps names that long.
You're just mixing some of our names like Yosef for e.g. for Muslim names
