Most excellent!

One could try for names that are most un-obvious to begin with, but  
which could be justified through careful explanation!

   Laminate
   Adhere
   Extrude
   Compress
   Compound Vertices
   Join Adjunctives
   Blend
   Germinate
   De-tangle
   EN-tangle  [of course]
   Exhaust
   Consume
   Resonate
   . . .
