How about Universal Hegemon. It's boastful just like Galactic emperor, but so boastful that it becomes more plausible.
Yes but Padisha emperor has already been used in similar context (Dune) to stellaris, secondly the Despotic Empire-Star Empire can't be all about star wars.
Which makes it worse since it'd be infringing on their IP.

I seriously doubt that the "word" Padishah Emperor is patented, and by that logic Paradox would also need to remove Zro Dust from the game since it's a very obvious reference to melange(Spice).
The use of a certain word in a certain context can be considered part of an IP.

But Padishah is just the Persian/Turkish term for emperor. Are you wanting the term to be Emperor emperor? Emperor^2?

I think you want either Spatium Imperator Or Tractus Imperator. Though someone with more than one term of Latin would be needed to clean that up. :)

My contribution is : Primus
Latin for "the first"
The title of the leader of Comstar (quasi religious cult from Battletech lore, with a monopoly on interstellar communications, hiding a gigantic army.. think space nazi AT&T).
Or not :)
Or maybe Primarch, like in mass effect. I also really like Star Emperor or Celestial Emperor. Also any of the Imperators though personally that's to military. Do we know if there is more than 1 upgrade to the government rank? Cause then we can add more stuff in, and honestly having more ranks makes sense to me

"Monarch"?
If it is an Empire it probably should be Emperor though.

The primarchs of Mass Effect would rather fit for the military dictatorship government.

"Monarch"?

No ruler that I know of has ever used the title "monarch", it seems a bit silly.

No, change emperor to glorious Iranian "Shahnshah"

Hardly glorious enough, you need to create the new title Shahanshahanshah: the king of kings of kings.

It's kind of hard to beat "Emperor" as a secular majestic title, because it essential means ruler of a large diverse realm or king of kings (or at least, above king).

Examples of other culture's high titles are mostly equivalent in meaning.

The only thing I could think of would be something like "Space Emperor", but that'd be silly. Very silly. Nobody would want that. Nope... [shifty eyes]
Clara: Looks like a Japanese restaurant. Oh! Have you brought me to a space restaurant?
The Doctor: People never do that, you know?
Clara: Do what?
The Doctor: They never put the word space in front of something just because everything's all sort of hi-tech and futurey. It's never space restaurant or space champagne or, or, or space... you know, hat. It's just restaurant, champagne or hat, even if this was a restaurant.
Clara: What about spacesuit?
The Doctor: Peasant

Perhaps not monarch but Sovreign? Universal Sovreign? It's a bit descriptive but the fact that itäs a pretty blantant boastfull lie takes the edge of it.

Truth be told it'd be cool if there was a list that every time a government was created it randomized a title from.
