At the risk of turning this conversation productive, I'll propose za'e
"blojukni".

We don't need any five part lujvo here, there are more than a thousand
two-parters that end in -jukni, and more than a million three-parters,
so for goodness' sake find something in that space.

And we certainly don't need any -kem-!  I would go so far as to say
that -kem- and -bor- should be elided in ANY lujvo that's meant for
long term use, unless there's a plausible useful distinct meaning of
the -kem-less version, which is quite rare.
