Yeah, chaotic is a bad name for it.
To be fair, maybe a fae creature is truly chaotic. They might act in ways that seem insane to other people. But, other than fae creatures, it should really be a matter of believing in hierarchies and deferring to people above you in the hierarchy, or having your own moral code that you follow even if it conflicts with the laws or your orders. A paladin should be a rule follower. A rogue should normally be someone who lives by their own rules. But, they're not really "chaotic".
Right, the problem is that the lawful/chaotic thing is cribbed from elric of melnibonea (am I spelling that right? It's been a while) where the concepts of law and chaos were actual big things in the world (and like most novels, the things that players get up to don't factor in as far as the story and 'world rules' are going to be). I think there was something similar in the renshai books, where chaos and law were a part of the story in an interesting 'world' sort of way, and not a factor as much in what a person in the world is.
