I think Pharynx and Chyme are really fine names.

Quite like Ileum too.

This is all hypothetical ofcourse!

Manus (actually an Irish boy name)
Collum (naughty boy name)
Dens (if you think Dennis is too old mannish/menacing)
Os (the fashionable O initial)
Barba (if you want to avoid Barbara but don't want to hurt gran's feelings)

My name is Gluteus Maximus, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Mucus Areolas. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next.
