The Ultimate Good: God
cannot exist without the
The Ultimate Evil: Satan
these two forces exist in all religions it is part of the basic understanding that keeps them alive. Heaven and Hell are existent in all releigions because everything is simply never too good to be true it will always have an opposite.
The Devil is existent in all religions so that's why he has many names. Every religion has an Ultimate evil and it is usually the Devil, that idea is as common to religion as the idea of god. It won't be defeated, as long as god is perceived to exist so will the Devil.

The Devil is just a man made idea so different cultures have different names

Because different people from different places gave him different names. Devil, for example is from the Latin "diablo" I think, I suppose others gave it a name more in keeping with their own language. I think it is the same as why God has different names. Just different opinions as well.

Because, as with demons, many of the names are descriptive of his personality and activities and people and cultures will give various names to evil. But when it comes down to it, the one name that would cover all of them for him would be "Anti-God"

Partly because different religions and denominations refer to him using different names, and partly to remind people that evil exists in many shapes and forms.

Because of his elusive nature. He can even be a gentlemanly prince (Prince des Tenebres- Prince of Darkness-, the French sometimes call him, apart from his other personalities

Because different cultures have different names for it. The devil doesn't have nearly as many names as god though.
