Wouldn't you agree that "Dark Lord Chris" doesn't have as much of a ominous or threatening ring to it as other names? I mean can you hear people saying "Run! The Dark Lord Chris coming!" just doesn't sound right. You'd have to work extra hard to inspire fear with a name like that. My theory is that you need a two syllable name- Vader, Sauron. THose seem to work. Three syllables is too much...think about Voldemort...that name just sounds stupid. Then again, Dark Lord Christoper doesn't sound so bad even though it has 3 syllables, but it doesn't sound as good the Dark Lord Christoph which only has two.
Like Dark Lord Torben sounds much better. Dark Lord Chris is about as fear-inspiring as Dark Lord Jiggly Puff.
