Names, bound morphemes



I'm thinking about the name problem.  Loglan and Lojban have an awkward way
of doing names, which is why I selected the 'ti' to mark names.  Now, I'm
thinking of having a bound morpheme that mark names of people or things. It
needs to be short.  Perhaps ye /Ze/.  Or fe. Or se.  Se is now available
because the old one became 'sa.'  We also have vo, ve, xe, xu, and zo.  I'd
like your input on which to pick, but taking zo for an example, here's how
it would work, as I think out loud.

Go kiam jozo.  My name is Joe.
Go duel hamerizo.  I live in the US.
Xikagozo bi gasa ceq.  Chicago is a big city.
Jupiter bi gasa plane.  Jupiter is a big planet.

How does this sound so far?
