I need a name for a race

In my story, I've found that I need a name for a race. The race is a half human half skeleton thing that can't be killed. (And no, they are not undead.)
Thanks for any suggestions!

I'd call 'em Boneheads. Except that sounds like goop... I mean, slurry.

Boneheads...... sounds like a silly yet good name....
If you understand that....
Thanks, I just might use that!

OK, joke comment first: the average adult human is 15% bone, so if they're 50% then skinnyuns, or magnaossians come to mind.

Serious bits now. What sort of theme does your book have, gothic fantasy would lead to one type of name, comedic fantasy another. Is the race as diverse as ordinary humans, or have you built them as monsters? or as guardians? etc. etc. Are they a naturally occurring race of your world or are they the bi-product of magical/alchemical tampering?

Who named them? Do you need their own name for themselves, or what other people call them?

Is the bone as an exoskeleton? are there gaps in the flesh? or is it some bits ordinary human some bits skeleton?

I think playing with those kind of questions coupled with words that a) mean bone in various languages and b) relate to the underlying themes of their role in your world.

Some general ideas that occur to me might me: Ossamen, Ossafolk, Knochenmen, Knochenfiends, Knochenfolk, Hezurlings, Knoglewights,

?? Hope these help and that others or you come up with better names! (there are reasons I'm not normally allowed to name things...)

Heh heh. I'm liking Knochenfiends. (Does that mean anything?)
Anyway, the setting for my story is that those guys are the main baddies that my good guy must fight. Eh, maybe they'll be guardians later on in the story. @ Dennis's comment, maybe Bonehead will be what others call them and Knochenfiends what they call themselves. Or, maybe not...
Still, thank you both.

Heh, heh. Perhaps I could use both Knochenfiends and Ossamen. One for the name of the baddies, (Knochenfiends) and the other for the empire, (Ossamen) if you don't mind me using your idea. Both, of course, are used by the Knochenfiends themselves. Outsiders call them Boneheads and the empire they call BoneheadVille. *Shrugs shoulders.*
And maybe I will have someone shout "Get off of my lawn, you Boneheads!
(Maybe even among the Boneheads themselves? Like there's a young one playing on an older one's lawn? Heh heh.)
I also liked Knoglewights. I think those names are so clever!

Just guessing Boners is over the top.

Er, I meant Thank You :)

Skelom, short for skeleton golem, since that is kind of what it sounds like.
