Same, I called it Ajedrez Ultraargentino since unlike problemist' Argentinian Chess, Kings and Pawns are also Argentinian. Other than that, I also made another variant that has Argentinian pieces and I managed to get someone to play my variant that has Argentinian pieces on YouTube (this was before I know morph parameter only works if there's no promoZone).

Would "Forfniqbibade" be a better name for the Sloppy Knight?

Why does that make it look better?
Tribunes are there to prevent Camelopards from jumping over pawns on the first turn.

Because it doesn't block but if you move your Camelopard past a pawn line on the first turn, the Camelopard can be captured.

You can already shorten KaKaaK though by 1 character by writing (a)2K. Dabbabante is (mpaf)D.

-King can't castle when in check in Chess

-King may not move out of check, except to capture its singular attacker in Makpong would be something like !mKcK

-Vaulting Camel-King from fairy chess problems would be K!!C

-Transmuting King from fairy chess problems (King but when it is threatened, moves only like the threatening unit(s) (!K+Orphan))

-Tengu pieces from MAD Chess

-etc.
