That is an interesting question.
I would say yes based on my studies. I am not Christian but I do study most of the faiths any ways to be educated on them.
I would say yes, when in the Catholic Church they do an exorcism don't they usually ask the Demon for it's name? A Demon after all is a fallen Angel is it not from the first war with god? I do not know about Muslims though but i am pretty sure that Christians do. Names such as Asmodeus, Beazabal, Tiamat, just a few I know of.
I am curious as to what a Muslim says for I do not know that one.
Cool question and a real question for a change that has not bad intent in it..=]

Yes. I am a christian! There is a Satan, many devils follow him and there is a God, even more angels follow Him.
I personally believe that these angels and devils have specific names and puroposes/tasks assigned to them as well.
Thankyou for this question! I am very interested in these subjects - please send me any more questions you may have relating to the above?!
Thankyou
David

I was raised as anon denominational Christian and I would say they do not, there is only one Devil, but his has his demons. There's a definite difference between Lucifer and his demons.
On a second point I am now pagan, no going into details of what path I follow, but we are not all Polytheistic. Most are but not all.

I never really thought about polydiabolism before.
Everybody has different beliefs.

No, there is only one satan, or devil. There are demons, but there are also angels.
