QFT on that one. Since when did Loud noise in sky = giant lightning bolt? NOT THE SAME

If anything it would be Lightning, Lightninga, and Lightningaga (ugghh), which is quite a mouth full, so I vote for Bolt/Bolta/Boltaga
One could argue that they are the same, considering the Lightning Bolt creates the Lightning Thunder. However I would agree that the bolt is the actual part of the lightning that would hurt you, rather than the sound. So yeah, that makese sense.

As for a new magic rather than renaming, I would go for something like Cook. I mean, some of those animals have got to taste good, right? Want it rare? Cook. Want it medium? Cooka. Well done? Cookaga!
