Invalid lineage name XYZ. Valid names are `[np.str_('4'), np.str_('0_1'), np.str_('0_2')]`.

[Zethson]

I had disabled the ehrapy cellrank CI job for a while as it was broken and I wanted to wait for a proper release and not with development versions. Today, I tried enabling the job again and I see that my test notebook fails with:

   1029     res.append(name)
   1031 if make_unique:

KeyError: "Invalid lineage name `'1_1'`. Valid names are: `[np.str_('4'), np.str_('0_1'), np.str_('0_2')]`."

Ignoring that the name doesn't match anymore (probably because of reproducibility issues that I keep hitting with cellrank), the valid names probably shouldn't include the np.str() or is that intended now?

Note that it still works when omitting the ´np.str` so it's probably just a malformed exception.
