Gozu Tennō is a Shinto deity of epidemic disease. Having not played Dark Sector and only scanned the plot, that does seem to be a relevant theme (the Technocyte virus), so perhaps influenced the naming of Hayden Tenno and, in turn, the Tenno of Warframe.

(Tennō on its own means 'emperor' or 'heavenly king', but is sometimes used to refer to Gozu Tennō, for instance in Matsuri Tennō (Tennō Festival), which celebrates Gozu Tennō.)

Also just throwing this out there, and probably not significant in Warframe, but Uranus in Japanese is called Tennō-sei, or "Planet of Tennō".

Just a thought.
