Purgill brain?

Then there's the straightforward functional naming style, something like "navigational cortex", as well as the positional naming, like "frontal lobe" and the equally bland, but livened up with a dose of learned Latin, "occipital lobe". ("Occiput" is Latin for "back of the head".)

(Liven up the "navigational cortex" with some Latin, perhaps. "Navigo" is too close to English to be interesting, so you might use "inno". I think that verb might turn into "innadum" as an adjective (a "gerundive"), but I have next to no chance of getting Latin grammar right. How many spaceships? This is hyperwarp away from, isn't it, boy?)
