On dictionary.com Dark Father translates to "Donkere Vader" in dutch.
*EDIT*
in fact, "Darth" is not dutch... maybe it's just a starwars thing... |

| Well, I had just heard that "Vader" was taken from the Dutch word for "Father"...don't think the whole thing was meant to be Dutch (or any one language...after all, aren't most Star Wars languages a mishmash of multiple languages, or just gibberish?) |

Actually, Ben Burtt has to work for a bit to engineer the languages so that they aren't gibberish.

How about Darth Caedes?

Darth Caducus
Latin:
caducus -a -um (1) [falling or fallen]. (2) [inclined or ready to fall]; esp. [destined to die , devoted to death]; in gen., [transitory, frail, perishable].
Darth Metus?
Latin:
metus -us m. [fear , dread; reverence, awe].
Darth Vagitus? <---my personal favorite!
Latin:
vagitus -us m. [whimpering , crying].

Personally, I'd go with Darth Cest.
Think about Palpatine's Sith name. Then combine it with Luke and Leia kissing...

When the Sith Fleets were amassing to fight against the Jedi and Mandalorian combined fleets of the Republic, the underlings were getting weary of referrinf to the high and mighty commanders as "Dark Lord of the Sith". Plus, the "Dark Lords of the Sith" were getting tired of hearing the phrase and having to speak themselves to each other as a formality.
Dark Lord of the Sith
Dark Sith
Dark Sith
Dar th
Darth... dude! Just call me Darth!
And thus, the tradition began.
I kid you not.
