Best Dwemer Ruin name ever!

The other day while questing in Deshan I ran into a Dwemer ruin named Mzithumz. The quest giver clearly spoke the pronunciation: "Miz-a-thooms."

I instantly had the following mental dialogue with myself:

Me1: "So, what is it you miss most from Skyrim?"

Me2: "Well, I'd have to say I Mzithumz!"

Miss-tha-thu'ums...

LOL I crack myself up sometimes! I bet it was intended. XD

    I think no one gets my joke.

    The Thu'um (pronounced "thoom") in Skyrim was the term used to describe the various shouts the player could learn, like Fus-Ro-Dah!

    Or maybe I'm just the only one laughing at myself in a crowded room again! XD

    or they just came up with it like this?

    "Hey man im struggling with a name for a ruin here, care to help me out?"
    "Sure, what type of ruin?"
    "Dwemer..."
    "Aha, lets see, how about this [smashing at random keys at keyboard really fast] mzidjufthfums - There, perfect!"
    "Thanks, but that aint no real name"
    "Dont worry about it, just clean it up a bit & take away some letters and stuff - it was a dwemer ruin right? Noone knows anything about the dwemer really so anything goes."
    "Thanks mate"
    "yw"
