What are super villains?

Supervillains are frequently utilized as foils to create a formidable challenge to a superhero. In cases when the supervillain lacks superhuman, magical, or alien talents, he may have a brilliant brain or skill set that allows him to devise complicated plans or perform crimes that normal humans cannot.

They may also have a lust for power and the possession of substantial wealth to accomplish their goals. Many supervillains, like real-world dictators, gangsters, mad scientists and terrorists, have goals for world dominance or universal leadership.

How to choose a good villain name?

Some of the best super villain names have a few things in common. The name is generally short in length with just a few characters and a single word (ie. Bane, Venom), or sometimes 2 names at most (Dr. Octopus, Two-Face, Darth Vader). The name will normally sound sinister in nature, but this isn't always the case (ie. The Joker).
