Orc-Bolg is just Goblin Slayer in the Elven language(High Elf Archer's nickname for him) and Beardcutter(Dwarf Shaman's name for him) is more rooted in Dwarf culture.

Long beards in Dwarven culture are a sign of masculinity and wisdom, so the title 'Beardcutter' essentially means someone who takes masculinity away. Someone who makes people tremble before him like small children even in the face of their manliness.

So, yeah. No names. Not in that line of work. Even the Gods are "Earth Mother" or "Supreme Goddess" and stuff.

Yes but Main-Importance is that it is not "Slayer" or "Goblin-Slayer",

like it is in Human Language - the Race that Goblin-Slayer is Part of

I for Example don't need to know how:

- Highelf-Archer sounds Elvish or all other Languages

same goes for the Lizardshaman and the Dwarf-Shaman,

or for Priestess Goblin-Slayer is currently THE ONLY ONE who has more than only "one Name"

Making him not as nameless as all the others
