Proto-Dravidian form of Murugan?
Would *Murukanṯu be a plausible reconstruction of Murugan (முருகன்)? I’m no expert so any input would be appreciated! Thank you for your time!

Comparative Linguistics with Proto-Dravidian forms of Murugan/Murukan and Other Names
Just curious on what would be the possible reconstructible Proto-Dravidian forms of Murugan (முருகன்), Ceyyon (செய்யோன்) and names like Mayon, Ventan, Katalon and Korravai (மாயோன், வேந்தன், கடலோன், கொற்றவை) based on comparative linguistics? I would appreciate any help from linguists!

Comparative Linguistics with Proto-Dravidian word for "Life"
Just curious on what would be the possible Proto-Dravidian word for "Life" based on comparative linguistics? Based on cognates like Telugu ఉసురు (usuru), Tamil உயிர் (uyir), Kannada ಉಸಿರು (usiru), Malayalam ഉയിര് (uyiru) and so on, I am not an expert on these things so would appreciate any help from linguists! Thank you for your time!

Ice Giants (Atzaeg Ishayru) are a race of tall men with pale skin and typically blood-red long hair. They hail from frosty regions originally, and nowadays live neighbouring the regions of men. They have their own isolate language and culture, although they are a little more technologically primitive since their original homelands were quite harsh to live in, preventing largescale advancement.
They make use of small ships called esav and are skilled with making weapons and settlements from the bones and tusks of Imaehangta (singular Maehangta, literally "Earth-horn") a type of white furry six-tusked mammoth-like creature native to their homelands which they have domesticated and use for transport.
