I added a post above that I wasn't suggesting we actually use these names. It's just for fun.How are you going to make this make sense for the reader?
Even more important, is there a reason in the story universe why conventional English language words aren’t used by the characters or by the narrator?
If this were done in a regular old contemporary setting on Earth, with no in-universe reason given or no lampshading at the very least (no acknowledgement that this doesn’t match the in-universe conventions of other people besides the characters or narrator), then suspension of disbelief would be just about impossible.
Even if there is an in-universe reason, like it’s not our world, it’s a made-up language, it’s a cult, the characters are totally ignorant of the words for these things because of whatever reason and so made up their own, even with any of these in-universe reasons or whatever others the story might have, it’s still clunky and hard to succeed with such a contrivance.
