[Opinions] Name suggestions for a male character who is the personification of death?
What names do you think would fit the Grim Reaper? For example, in the video game, Cult of the Lamb, the god of death is named, Narinder. I thought that was cool since it’s an uncommon name and the meaning is fitting (lord of men). I appreciate any suggestions.

The grim reaper is a psychopomp, not really death itself. He accompanies the soul to the other side. For that reason I always saw him as rather comforting, if a bit gloomy. So I'd give him a name with a friendly meaning, like Daniyar, Samir, Emre, or Mitra or something. One of my best friends in junior high was a female Narinder, haha.

The name of the day, Cyrus, supposedly means "humiliator of the enemy." That seems pretty fitting for the Grim Reaper.
Mortimer, Admatha, Nex, Miquiz are all death-related. You could also do Bethuel, Sugata or Nyoman.
It seems Cult of the Lamb is more popular than I thought, I assumed it was just a thing with my weird little sister.
