Well according to Megaman Network, most of the bosses (in the first game anyway) are supposed to be named after mythological creatures and gods. Leviathan is named after the Leviathan, a sea moster from the bible and Harpuia is possibly named after the Harpis, a mythological birdlady. Maha Ganesherrif is named for the Hindu god Ganesh, and Herculios Anchus is probably named after the Greek god Hercules. Anubis Necromancees is named after the Egyption god of death Anubis, and Hanumachine is named after Hanuman, another Hindu god that appeared as a monkey. Aztec Falcon is named after the Aztec civilization, and Tretesta Cerberian is named after the three headed dog of Greek mythology Cerberus.

Also, Fenrir is the name of the wolf god of the earth in ancient mythologies if I remember.

Searchman X, that was already stated above in a previous post. Please read before you make a comment on something to make sure you don't repeat what has already been said in the topic.

Adding to the part about Omega, it is also used as a symbol for the end. It is used often in conjuction with Alpha, meaning the begining for form "The Beginning and The End". These are used in either ancient text, paintings, or in plays.

I think Tetsuka Osamu just try to give the cool name that factor. Omega has nothing relate to evil, at least for my knowledge.

Like Pegasolta,all of RMZ4 's boss based from Mythical character:
Minos Magnus=Minotaur
Sol Titanya=Titania the fairy queen in Shakespear 's novel(MidsummerNight dream?).
Fenrir Lunaedge= One of Loki 's children Fenrir that other mentioned.
Chicken boy= Cockaratice, the chicken that has petrification eye.
Tech Kraken= Kraken is the sea monster in Greek mythology.
Nobel Mandragora= Mandrag is the mystical plant.
Heat Genblem=Genbu, the japanish turtle god that guard south(or maybe other direction, I can't remember) Other direction guardian are Dragon, Phoenix and White Tiger. Zuchiaomon from digimon was also based from this god,too.

I wonder more about the snake boss from RZ2,Urobockle?I don't know much about this character, but in Full Metal Alchemist, It 's the name of the mark that seven Homunkuluses have. The mark looks like the star with Dragon. Can anyone give more info about it?

I think Stagroff could be based off of some ancient ice god. But, I'm not sure. Anybody know?

Blizzack Stagroff is simply "Blizzard Stag" with some liberties taken with the name, in order to give it a sound of ethnicity.
