Hi Zachary,
I'm a bit of a lojban butcher myself, always good to see someone new
joining - helps to motivate me to do more

About your name, or the cmene thereof -

 I believe cmene need to end in a consonant, normally an s is added, or
the final vowel dropped, but you can do what ever you want
eg,   ZAkyr, or ZAKyris

Also, stress in lojban falls on the penultimate syllable, so you have
capitalised the first syllable to make that the stressed one - however I
seem to recall that the schwa 'y' doesnt count, so the stress would be
on the first syllable anyway - can someone else confirm this?

Best of luck

djon.
