About galra names
Barked single syllables such as "Vryv" and "Zeg" dominate the output, with growled two-beat results like "Meltogg" filling out the officer ranks. Names this terse suit sentries, fleet commanders, and defectors in Voltron-inspired fan fiction or any empire of purple-armored soldiers you are drafting. Reserve the longer results for named lieutenants so the grunts stay anonymous.

Naming notes
The phonetic character is hard and feline-martial, r, g, and k sounds with clipped consonant endings that read like a conquering warrior race. The short and long patterns give terse and fuller forms. Use these for that empire's soldier characters or original martial aliens in a fan story set in that style.
