I'd imagine he would, considering he effectively wanted to create a new world order with himself at the head. However, this would have been after his defection from the Dragon Cult proper. I suppose it is possible that Miraak, Ahzidal, Dukaan, and Zahkriisos were all unnamed lower-ranking dragon priests who received their masks from Hermaeus Mora, and gave themselves their names. Naming inconsistency could be due to the fact that they chose their own names, rather than being given names by the dragons.
