About besalisk names
Single open syllables dominate here, results like "Qo", "Xa", and "Bo" that land with one friendly thump. Inspired by the four-armed Besalisks of Star Wars, they fit diner owners, dock bosses, and junk dealers who greet everyone like a regular. Double a result, or chain two such as "Ka" and "Ro", when a single beat feels too thin for a major character.

Naming notes
The heavy use of dr- and similar clusters gives a broad, hearty sound suited to large, gruff, good-humored characters in a Star Wars-style setting. These read well for tradesfolk, cooks, or proprietors. The longer outputs carry the most character. For original characters, tabletop NPCs, and fan fiction.
