deadly sin of pride he trapped the elven kingdom in a timeloop for a perfect day and every time something goes wrong it resets

Was he always the deadly sin of pride or does he have a backstory prior to this?

He was always the deadly sin of pride but he got arrogant and killed all the other sins and absorbed them stealing their powers

Oh, hey. That's a good start. So does he still identify himself as Pride?

I haven't introduced him yet they are still on the first loop and they still in the Deja Vu phase and so far he's only been labled as the duke he is undercover as a elf duke right now nobody knows hes a sin yet

Alright, let's think about this. So you have a concept of a name, but let's look at what he sees as himself now. Like, he just absorbed all the other sins. So is he a glass half empty or half full sort? Does he see himself as the fulfilled, perfect Sin or does he have this sense of being a void who consumes all that is before him? That might give us a clue on what he calls himself.

right now he is a arroagant sin who thinks hes entitled to everything he can warp reality to cause a time loop in a fixed area which is the elven kingdom of elginia it isnt the whole world though its just the elven kingdom he can also make everyone have shared pain so if he kills someone everyone dies if he crushes someones skull in everyones skull is crushed in also he can regenerate and can see the future with foresight so he can crush his own skull to kill the mc and also see what the mc is gonna do before he does it, its a shounen style story though so its to teach the mc that a perfect day is a prison and nothing is perfect but i think i made the dude too strong ?

Alright, he's a glass half full type. So let's focus on a name that reflects this, okay? Like something that is totalitarian centralized on the whole; unity.

Well so far my naming scheme has been short and punchy like Elsinore and Scarlett for the mentors, Emari for the bestie, Velios for the comidic relif, Valerius for the demon lord, Alistair for the cryptic creepy vampire general so thats my naming style
bob is crazy ?

Ngl, that kinda takes away the focus of the reader from the story.

A villain with the name Timmy doing bloody awful things is more memorable than Arceus Hange IV with black armor, bloody flag, and a big sword.
It all depends on how serious a story you have, I suppose.

Two of my villains are Timur and Camila... hers is kind of villainous, but Timur? Sounds like the name of someone who is pouring my coffee at Starbucks and would spell my name Yue-ah.

You wouldn't know by their names that they were in charge of a massive criminal cartel, and were about to auction off one of my characters, and r*pe the other one in her BDSM Harem.

Then let's keep that trend going. Look, he's arrogant too, right? I think he'd name himself in a way that shows his achievements of absorbing and unifying all sins into himself. At first, I thought maybe something like Duke Monad would be okay, but... I really don't like that name, still it is a name and it's your character, so you can pick it if you want; it means something like "the total of all things" so, it fits.

But, honestly, I am sort of a fan of Duke Henosis. It's Greek. I think it means something like "union with the mystical" or "mystical unity" or something like that. I offered. Your choice. :blobthumbsup:
