Sounds reasonable to me Charlie...Here's a few more I remember...then we better stop before the "topic police" get us.
Trouba (fool)...Husa (goose)...Pitlik (a little sack)...Sutzik ( something that sticks up al la "Alfalfa")...Knedlky (dumpling)....Zajic (rabbit).  
 
I got along...stilll do...fine with my wife's relatives...They all held up the "thrifty" end of the Czech nature.

Pete-
Actually, Grodek is Polish and means “Gate”.   Vlk is Czech/Bohemian/Slovak and is the Indo-European root word for all the words that mean “Wolf”.
Perhaps the Q had too many of us working for it which accounts for its, er, “thrifty” reputation!
