I have heard it said that the reason there are so many names is because the name, "god" is to be reverenced. The world has sure abused that one. We refer to "diety" with reverence and respect. The divine, holy name of God should not be over or needlessly used unless in prayer.

For example, the priesthood of God was called after the name of Melchezedek to avoid the too frequent use of the name of God.
