Tycho - Nope
Leela - Nope
Durandal - Nope
Demon Core - Sounds like my daughter too but nope. Spherical lump of plutonium that killed two physicists experimenting on it in separate incidents before being used in the first atomic test after WW2
SCRAM - Safety Control Rod Axe Man - Failsafe system on a nuclear fission reactor, almost always a big red button labeled 'SCRAM'
Dies Irae - Close, just rewind a few years. Not so much a reference to the hymn but what the hymn was inspired by:

Spoiler

"Dies iræ, dies illa, dies tribulationis et angustiæ, dies calamitatis et miseriæ, dies tenebrarum et caliginis, dies nebulæ et turbinis, dies tubæ et clangoris super civitates munitas et super angulos excelsos."

"That day is a day of wrath, a day of tribulation and distress, a day of calamity and misery, a day of darkness and obscurity, a day of clouds and whirlwinds, a day of the trumpet and alarm against the fenced cities, and against the high bulwarks."

A.K.A the end of days.
