It is so simplistic I am surprised nobody else thought of it:
-Digger
Or if you are looking for something more epic; Terranova
Claymore may also be appropriate

Here is my idea: Ruk (r-UH-k). say it with no movement of the lips, with minimal movement of the tongue, with most of it resonating in the throat. This should produce a low, harsh pronunciation, with reverberations on the "R". Ruk is a good name for two reasons. If hobgoblins had there own language, I would imagine it would consist of mostly of harsh words. Also, note the similarities between "Ruk" and "Rock".
Thank you for the time you took to read this post,

Hi everybody, here are my suggestions;
(In no particular order, I like them all equally)
1. Kir'ok - A little different aesthetic with this one, the "Kir" is quick and sharp but the "ok" compliments the keeness with an earthen tone (without the ' - accent mark - it might sound like Kee-rock).
2. Gulvan - Short and blunt, but also modest and humble (if it doesn't remind you of sea gulls and vans).
3. Nordred - This sounds rather more friendly than the other two (to me, at least)... Almost like "Norbert."
I hope you find them useful! ^_^
Cordially,
Orcrystys :D
Here, I'll give you this strawberry if you keep it a secret!

Grub Flinger :P

Was trying to think of a better word to indicate some magic attack, but 'Grub' was all I came up with. Seems more like Range, but ah well, lol.
You can only fully appreciate a story when you experience it through the eyes of one of its characters.
