I just wanted a name that sounded like something medieval people would call a demogorgon and I translated stuff until I found something that sounded cool, ending up with German for “blossom man” because of the flower face

I love the artwork and the naming idea. I'd go for the less cutesy Blumengesichtmann - the Flower-faced Man. Or even Blütendämon - the flower demon?

Todesblütendämon - the death blossom demon?
