This is actually a really good idea for a thread OP. Good job.

Goídel Glas (Latinised as Gaithelus) is the creator of the Goidelic languages and the eponymous ancestor of the Gaels.

Golgotha, the name and the meaning sounds metal as fuck.

Koschei the Deathless of Slavic folklore is one of my favorites.

As far as organization names, an obscure German occult group named; "The Lords of the Black Stone" is cool too. Or the Confederate; "Knights of the Golden Circle"

Old Polish names are pretty neat.

Radochna - she who is joyful
Wojciech - he who gets joy from war
Mścisław - vengeful one
There's like fuckton of them here:
Częstowoj - he who fights often

Ahhh m80 this is just a combination of the rather common name "Dionysius" (shared with the god and quite a few tyrants of Syracuse) and his job as a member of the Areopagus.

Hawaiian royalty had some breddy gud names:

Kamehameha
Liliuokalani

One of my favorite royal titles, though is the Samoan "king" (it's actually a more complex system with multiple titles where the high kingship rotates through families, and the current family's right to the title is disputed by some claimants, but close enough): The title is "Malietoa", which supposedly comes from Tongan warriors shouting "well fought, great warrior!" ("mālie toa, mālie tau!") as they were driven back into their boats when the first of the royal line drove a Tongan invasion/raiding party out of Samoa.

For that matter, the Tu'i Tonga Empire has a pretty cool sci-fi aesthetic to it to me.
