so theres many rituals that I've come across where you must utter your magical name/motto/handle to the entities that you invoke as part of it

trouble is, I never decided on one

what goes into picking a magical name? what do you need to consider when coming up with a motto or handle for yourself? and does it really need to be in latin or greek?

help pls

You have a name which your parents gave you.
This is the label which you have carried all your life.
Attached to it are all the feelings and ideas you have about yourself,
and that others project upon you.
it is a mini-egregore and as such can prove limiting.

A magical name is an inspirational name
an ideal which enflames and lifts your soul
it is free from any dead weight
and reminds you of your ultimate desire.

What is that you really want?
What motto inspires you to be who you want to be?

It doesnt have to be Latin or Greek this is a convention
(which i think has some uses)
In my opinion the most important thing is that it is your name for 'NOW'
you can always change your name later as your desire evolves.

meditate and ask your higher self what is the best piece of advice for you in this moment.
If something comes to you and it rings true- there you have a motto
try to strip away from it all extreneuous detail and leave it as unambiguous as possible
remember that this motto is giving instructions to your subconscious mind
(which is easily confused-bless)
if you then want to translate it into another language feel free.
