The East Asian dubs use their respective languages' readings of the Chinese characters that spell Grandmaster of Demonic Cultivation: Mo Dao Zu Shi's names, leading to a lot of renaming rather than keeping the names intact.
Note: While the Japanese dub of the audio drama adaptation relies on Dub Name Change, the Japanese dub of the donghua adaptation keeps the characters' original names and only applies this trope to titles and locations.
