The Empire is a governing system where it's head of state is controlled by a man whose literally the galactic embodiment of evil, so anybody in any sort of position of power within the Empire is going to jockey for power while wielding evil as a weapon and the primary means of exerting their authority. After the official fall of the Empire any Imperial remnant is still going to alude to that prior evil head of state in order to solidify their authority amongst themselves and project their power and authority across the galaxy. The over the top naming is just something that's on brand for people trying to control an empire founded on evil.
