These sound very good indeed.

Apart from "apothecary" (wouldn't want to type that multiple times per day!), 
I can't say I don't like these, either. The problem is of course how you put 
it: Without some interest in medieval metaphysics, you can't really make any 
sense of them. (I could've easily understood most. :))

Maybe there are still alternative names for grimoires which aren't completely 
cryptic, either. I mean, even though we prefer "magical" names for 
developers, we still don't have to call project lead "Elyon", and gurus "the 
Elohim". (Although if we did, we could refer to any other distro 
as "Samael" ;))
