Help with character names

Hey guys,

I'm making a couple characters for a campaign I'm running and need help with naming. It's a group of three half-brothers and their half-sister. Each one is a half-something (their mother was a kind-hearted prostitute).

The oldest is a Half-Elf by the name of Bargle.

The middle brother is a Half-Orc with the name Blarta (stolen and heavily modified from the Pathfinder NPC Codex).

The youngest brother is a Half-Dwarf. I can't think of a name that works with first two names.

The sister (who happens to be younger than all the brothers) is a Half-Ogre. I don't have a name for her either, but I'm thinking Barlah.

Anyone have any ideas for names that fit with the other names? In particular, I'm looking for something that starts with a B and has an A sound in it.

Bueller? Bueller? Bueller? Bueller?

Oh man! I forgot all about that! I knew that name sounded a bit familiar. Still, I'm going with it. I like the sound of it too much and Bargle is supposed to be a villain anyway. The only one of the group that is redeemable is Blarta, who is an NPC in the group.

As a matter of fact, this might be a great opportunity to work in the old Kill Bargle quest! Thanks for the memory jog Dioltach.

Familiar with the concept - Haque & Slache were half-orc and half-elf half-brother barbarians, though their mother was a priestess...

The oldest is a Half-Elf by the name of Bargle.

The middle brother is a Half-Orc with the name Blarta.

The youngest brother is a Half-Dwarf. I can't think of a name that works with first two names.
Also, half-dwarf not really a thing outside of Athas.

The sister (who happens to be younger than all the brothers) is a Half-Ogre. I don't have a name for her either,
How 'bout 'Dot.' She could wear a polka-dotted skirt and insist she's cute.

Bartha - like Bertha but an 'a.' Or, rip off DC and use Big Barda.

So Bargle, Blarta, Barvik, and...Bartab? Bar'none? Barque? Barkskin, named after the spell?

Orm as a half-ogre, just "Barrrrrr"?
