Naming Satan - The Many Names of the "Deceiver" [View all]
The Dictionary of American Regional English has come up with a list of names used to describe the supposed supernatural entity one member here has called the "Deceiver." That name is on the list, along with many, many others. I've included a partial list here, along with a link to the complete list. Of course, this list is just from American English and is probably incomplete. Other languages, no doubt, have their own long lists:
