For diamond-pattern formula compounds I suggest prefixing END- to the same formula without the corners. Thus Knight+Trebuchet is the n:3-n ENDKNIGHT, Caribou+Cobbler the n:4-n ENDCARIBOU, Gamewarden+Quibbler the n:5-n ENDGAMEWARDEN (the pun inspiring the prefix!), and Swan+7:0 leaper the n:7-n ENDSWAN.
