Megamind, as Space Dad, picked the name "Titan" for Hal's superpowered form because it invokes a sense of a being of godlike power, like Hal had become. However, many of the Titans are, in many versions of the Greek myth, described as beings of petty cruelty and selfish whim, which fits Hal's ultimately villainous attitude to a T. And with Hal thinking it's spelled "Tighten" is because he's an idiot, it's just as meaningful. "Tighten" means "to squeeze", which fits both his villainous goals — to force the world into giving him everything he feels he wants. Not to mention, Megamind wanted Hal to be a hero (Titan), but Hal himself perverts the concept into a supervillain (Tighten). Tighten is a perversion of Titan, both in name and concept.
