Actually, I think Mitregi works quite well if you don't try to pronounce
it as a compound of Mitre and Gi.  With a short i (as in the first
syllable of mittens) and an unaccented second syllable you get a word that
rolls off the tongue fairly well. 

'mit-ruh-GEE'

For the larger variant I would propose Humpregi.  Not good, but maybe
better than Humpmitregi.
