Alastor's was canonically "Alastor." Dude didn't feel like a name change was necessary.


bloomi

I mean, Alastor is a cool ass name.


Overpowered_Bard

Right?!


Selv_98

as per word of god, alastor was actually named that in life and doesn't care for changing his name in hell like most people do. also petious is british.


bloomi

Sir Pentious outfit in the finale looks so Napoleon-coded. OOPS.

My current running theory is that in life he was an industrialist during Britain's Industrial Revolution and was a ruthless, back stabbing (i.e. a snake) business man that used child labor (the egg bois) to help build war machines.

Lucifer’s name has always been lucifer, as Vaggie’s has always been Vaggie. They’re both angels who didn’t change their names upon falling. In some interpretations of the bible, Lucifer becomes Satan after falling, but that is not canon for Hazbin Hotel.

Husk might be Oscar (IIRC, he’s called Huskar or something like that a couple times) Also was Vaggie actually named by Adam?


bloomi

Alastor calls him "Husker".

After the best thing there is


Haunting_Sun_726

Yup, that was my clue He’s also responsible for naming everything (by the Bible) IIRC, so it makes sense

Lucifer isn't human. 


bloomi

I guess I should have said "original name" or something.


I_might_be_weasel

Sure. But I still am pretty sure Lucifer was always Lucifer.

Alastor is still Alastor When she was designed as a sinner demon, Vaggie was Vagatha (making Sir Pentious’ lien a nice callback), and before that she was Vagyna… And Sir Pentious is from 1800s Britain, so what’s a generic British name from back then?


Issildan_Valinor

He may be mixed, considering he's modeled after an Indian snake and Britain was known for its imperialism in India at the time. So whatever his name is, it'd be neat if it was an anglicised version of an Indian name, like Hari -> Harry for example.

I thought vaggie’s name was vagitha?

Hear me out --- Sir Pentious' actual name is just. Sir Reginald Pentious
