I thought Urist meant "Gear".
That's "Olon" if memory serves.   :-\
Not "Cog"? :D

Nope, I just checked.
It was something I remembered from Nist Akath.

On the subject of dwarven names:
Urist means dagger.
Cog means boot (I think)
Olon means gear
Sarvesh means Anvil, but I'm not sure about this one.

I like learning bits of dwarven. It's funny when you the dwarven name of a fort and can actually translate half of it by heart.
