Ah, okay, so I guess you could

There isn't necessarily any need for one; according to ghunchu'wI' QIn, it appears the word jul is not used as a proper noun; just as the Klingon homeworld is not called yuQ, the Klingon sun need not be called jul.
Also, just as the Klingon homeworld is called both Qo'noS and juHqo' in just one language, the Sun may very well have 3*3+3 names or more.
By the way, one might also wonder if the word has something to do with weather typical of a certain Earth month...

chaq lugh Felix. Though the etymology of *yule* is uncertain (cf. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yule#Etymology), it is celebrated during the winter SOLstice.
Now we can finally retire *{Hovmaj}, *{jajHov}, *{pemHov}, etc. My favorite work-around was *{juHHov} because it paralleled {juHqo'} "homeworld".
