well Preah-Kakruna means "King" but maybe we could shorten it to Kakruna, and make it plural by adding the s (Kakrunas) and then it would mean "Kings". I think "8 Kings" sounds better, but the name is a bit longer

Olmec lol thats from south america. Im forced to talk about that infront of my World History class.
Maybe we can have our tribes name be Gentlemen in Khmur or however you spell that.
Something that would relate to our tribe. And we have to think about if these judges mentioned in the treemail if they might like it.

i don't think translating gentlemen is creative enough
we need to infuse cambodian culture into the name further than translating an english word into khmer.
