How to explain that a name implying the character killing people isn't good for a hero.

You can't because they want a person to be both a hero and called a killer all the time.

A murderer.

Someone who kills.

It's like if "Suicide Via Nuclear Explosion Man" was sent to guard the United Nations, except he wouldn't be allowed in there with a name like that cuz no one would be a hero named as such.
