Demons have many names, and one in every language. Most of a demon’s names can be found by taking the letters of an angel’s or higher-ranking demon’s name, and processing them through The Tables of Ziruph or The Tables of Commutation to get the Hebrew name. When you change the language of the letters used in the tables, it will produce the demon’s additional names. Other demon’s names can only be found using the special table of characters, pictured above. Source: The Fourth Book of Occult Philosophy by Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, 1783
