Gnomish should be more artificial. Esperanto.
Esperanto is more like Common. A language that everyone speaks, more or less, can only be something from an imperialist power or a neutral ground created for that.
So lojban for gnomes
Oh absolutely, Common is always Esperanto in my games with something like its history mapped onto whatever world I’m running. That leaves space for regional languages to be everything else.
