Requesting assistance with Klingon

So, I have a Klingon recruit named Khurlli'joh. Her bridge officers include Moh, Laariy, and Khurrli.
I want to give her ship the most appropriate name possible. Is there a Klingon word that translates to "stooges" more accurately than "qoH"? And how would one pluralize the word? (Best I can get with online references is "qoHmey", but when I use the online Klingon-English translator it renders "qoH" as "fool", and "qoHmey" as "foil".)
Also, would the number "Wej" come before or after the noun?

Some thesaurus options for "stooge":- servant: toy'wI
- foolish: Dogh ("to be foolish")
The correct pluralizer suffix is "-pu'" (for beings capable of using language). And when using a number for counting, it goes in front of the noun.
So "Three stooges" would be wej qoHpu' or maybe wej toy'wIpu' Dogh."Great War! / And I cannot take more! / Great tour! / I keep on marching on / I play the great score / There will be no encore / Great War! / The War to End All Wars"

> Thank you. The online sources I have are worse than useless for things that aren't translated for them from the movies.
I am proud to have assisted someone in saying "The Three Stooges" in Klingon. 🤣
