Agreed. But you said brivla, which in that example is jdara'a, and that's not a name, it's one of the categories that appears in the cultural gismu (religion).

It seems that for arbitrary "culture names" the proper solution is
start with "Type 1" or "Type 2" fu'ivla aka quoted non-Lojban and
cmene (using "me" if needed). There is no need to coin a brivla
unless the word is being used frequently over time, or if there is
need to represent a full place structure.

They aren't culture names.
We may be arguing terminology. "la vylkan." in the above is what I mean by a "culture name". Likewise "English", "Hungarian", "Hmong", "Zoroastrian".
