This is an index of my projects without a proper name, identifiable by the ending -ax. Originally names were required to be trisyllabic, but I've laxed the requirements to a minimum of bisyllabic.

Name What Where
Audimax unused name An auditory in Hamburg
Battlax "Battle Ax"
Betamax Former name for Ouiqál Obvious
Bustax "Buster" (no specific reason)
Jabdax A labialization sketch, dumped in Pakistania'. The piece "Jabdah" by Koto was playing when coining the name.
Klusterax It's got consonant clusters. This one's back from when the names still had some relation to the project in question.
Sahax Wannabe Pirahã. Broken from the first suitable Pirahã word I found containing the sequence <ax> - saha-xai, "shouldn't".
Sadabax A West Altaic' branch. "Saddlebacks". Ironically it's starting to seem that Sadabaxians are some of the least nomadic Altaic peeples.
Telefax The beginning idea was "/ɬ x/ as the only fricativs". Some Etruscan went in there too, and I got inspired to add implosivs too. NOT A KITCHEN SINK I SWEAR Do you really need to ask?
Tonax Former, or shall we say the more official name for Dork Elvish Tones. See how these used to work?
Univax Explained on page itself. Mix of "Unix" and "Univac"
Wtfhax Ack, I don't remember anymore… how suitable. An image macro of a lion on stilts sneaking on a giraffe.
Zithromax They start so innocently. "Y'kno, why do so few protolanguages have distinct postalveolars?" A tradename of some drug, IIRC; possibly influenced by Starship Bistromath


Not to be confused with these: Ängrex (a temporary name as well, but the "x" is legit)
