WIP (2/3):

Aristopod

"Aristocrat" + "gastropod"

Pronounced: "Uh-RIS-toe-pod"
IPA: əɹɪstəʊpɑd

paintseagull indirectly pointed out to me that "Architon" could easily be mispronounced to have the same stress pattern of "archetype" if the reader isn't familiar with Greek, and I figure most people would have that misconception, so I ditched the name. Here's a name I like after brainstorming all evening. Thanks to Sunfished for giving feedback and a suggestion on which spelling I should use! :D
