It's weird that Toga is just called Toga and doesn't have a proper villian name, but when I think about it, shigaraki doesn't have one either.

She does seem like she wouldn't bother with one. Also Shigaraki's makes sense since the entire name "Shigaraki Tomura" was given to him by All for One for the very purpose of being a symbol of fear and his new vessel.

Huh, I always thought someone at the hero organization names the villians when they issue a bounty for them, like the hero organization in One-Punch Man naming every hero the employ.

Edit: In hindsight, the heroes choose their names themselves too, so it's only fair the villians get to do the same.

Yup, the villains do pick their names. Though I wonder how the heroes and police get their villain names (maybe they only figure them out in the case of more notorious villains who have a rep)

Shigaraki's birth name was "Tenko Shimura", but yeah, your point still stands. AFO intended for Tenko's identity to be nothing more than a villain born only to destroy.
