The Emperor of Mankind does not have a "name" as the average human knows a name to be, he might have a birthname but that was long ago and holds no relevance, his real name is probably psychic and esoteric and not mental or conceptual, so that only the Emperor knows it. For example, his name can probably be only deciphered in runes and not letters or words.

At I doubt that he would be given a Turkish birth name. Turkish names, since Islam came to Turkey, have been much different than the names of ancient Anatolian language. Not to mention that his family was nomadic, and not native to Anatolia either (based off the Emperor article here anyway)Europe, or deeper in Asia. On the otherhand, I'll bet alien races such as the Eldar or Orks have had various names for the Emperor, and Chaos calls him the Anathema. I wonder though what the unfortunate Orks who have seen the Emperor in action know the man as?
