Hm. You mean, like, everybody knows me and they all use only one name to address me?
I'll have to go with "God-Empress" then. I would greatly enjoy that.
If the leadership part does not come as a freebie, i don't really mind. Mostly, one has ONE nickname used by the social group you spend most of your time with. *shrug* Basically as good as suggested, except you may end up with a different name used in different life periods.
Because they are then locking in a name for me.
As your example of Cher shows, it's only fun if you get to choose by yourself.
Imagine your Parents named you McLovin and you turn out as overweight gay system administrator. You'll either be a star or never live if down. Not worth the risk.
Much more fun to go pick something for yourself and go by that. I have a short and direct nickname, which is used in work, by my friends, even my family.
Why that would be improved if i was only given that name in the first place is beyond me, the result would still be exactly the same, only when i need documents for official purposes there would be a difference.
Would you like to have only ONE name?

what about imp-goddess? that could be your sinister alter-ego that emerges when you are furious or feeling mischievous.
No, like you were born, and your parents named you 'Love' or 'Nutbag' and nothing follows.

Well, that would feel rather stupid.
