"tigypre" means "performer-person" and it would cause unacceptable confusion to
give it the additional totally unrelated meaning of a musical chord. Similarly
for "mijyste" which could be used in the description of an algorithm to find the
median. "ai.o'upei" is an attitudinal question and can't be used to name
anything. The proper way to name notes, I think, is with letterals.
