This is from the full list of Eternals linked to from the new dev blog ( https://euw.leagueoflegends.com/en-gb/news/dev/dev-your-eternals-feedback-in-action/ )
Just scrolling through it I found this:
All the other champions have their correct names.
What do you guys think? maybe just the name the developers use?
It is the name they use internally, I believe even when scraping the API it comes as MonkeyKing as well.
Yep. For some reason (before my time) Wukong didn't get his internal file names changed when his name was picked, unlike all other champs. Most champions go through a lot of their development with a code name (e.g. Talon was BladeRogue, Rakan was DuoSupport). They then get renamed when we pick a final name for them. Didn't happen with all files for Wukong though for some reason.
You can't just tease us like that, hit us with some more weird looking development names. <3
Ones that come to mind (disclaimer, I'm probably gonna get one or two slightly wrong):
Sett - Grappler Yuumi - Catbook Aphelios - GunSwap Ekko - TimeKid RekSai - Burrower Azir - Seth Jinx - PsychoArsenal Syndra - Dark Sovereign Ornn - Forge (I think, possible I'm wrong on this one) Kled - YONAG (short for 'Yordle on not a griffin', since a prior concept had instead involved a Yordle on a griffin that we moved away from) Tahm Kench - FishTank Vel'Koz - Professor Eyeball
