UrSkeks names - The Dark Crystal

This name generator will give you 10 random names fit for the urSkeks part of The Dark Crystal universe.

UrSkeks are a race of tall, almost skeletal humanoids with a bright inner light. This light turns dark when they're angered and shows their dual nature. UrSkeks who act against the ways urSkek society considered pure were banished and could only return if they were able to purify themselves of their imperfection. Eighteen of these non-conforming urSkeks were banished to Thra, the world the Greflins inhabit. They lived there for a thousand years (Trines) before attempting to cross back to their own world. To paraphrase the events immensely: due to a mishap during their ritual they were unsuccessful. Even worse, they were split into two beings: Skeksis and urRus. The Skeksis being their darker, evil parts and the UrRus being their lighter, gentle parts. It would take a thousand more years before they'd be able to attempt to rejoin into one-being again.

UrSkek names are dual in nature, like SaSan or TekTih. When an UrSkek splits into a Skeksis and urRu, the first part becomes part of the Skeksis name and the second becomes part of the urRu name.
It seems UrSkek name halves always have the same amount of syllables, but there's only one name without two one-syllable halves (AyukAmaj), so it could be a coincidence. Etiher way, this generator follows these naming conventions.
