I've heard "tarugo"  and "tarado". 
Tarugo as in "como eres tarugo"   Not being very smart,  almost
like "como eres menso".  Tarugo, tarado, and menso are used in about the
same context.

I know, I've been called all three at different
times!

"Tarayata" sounds linked to "taragua" which I was often called because I
was considered lazy when I was younger - I simply didn't enjoy doing the
household chores while my brothers were out playing :).  Perhaps the
"tara" portion is the relationship in a similar base language, which be in
this area of discussion!
