I *STILL* don't have my copy in hand, but at least in the online Hamlet
from which it is derived (which I edited), the name is "vortIbraS", which
you will note does not have a triple-consonant cluster. We thought of
that. Is it otherwise in the printed version?
Note that many of the other names you list are nonce-respellings, and I
wouldn't consider them true proposed Klingonizations of the English (or
other) names.
