Koutei. "Gyo" is an honorific that is used to refer to an emperor or something imperial. Also, "akitsukami" or "akitsumikami" are honorific terms for an emperor, translating literally to "living god".

There's also "Tennō" (天皇), which means "Heavenly sovereign". One of the most well known uses of this name is in the cry "Tennō Heika Banzai!" (天皇陛下萬歲) "Long live the Emperor!" (but literally meaning "May the Emperor live for 10,000 years!")
