I don't think that's necessary. If you interpret {.kok.deivid.} as a 
parallel tanru, then it doesn't matter in which order you put the parts:

la .david.kok. cu ge .kok. gi .deivid.
"David Koch is both a Koch and a David."

So you can change the order depending on your preference or depending on 
what might be more easily understood by certain cultures.
