I plan to make the RP Battleworld into a saga, but I need a more appropriate title for the saga, as well as possible book titles.
As a setup, the story is about a global conflict between the high-tech factions, the wizard and sorcerer factions, the religious factions, the tradition-driven factions and those who came together after suffering from different factions.
Basically, it is an interconnected saga with some novels focusing on a few individuals in one or more faction, and some focusing on the global theater of events. Altogether, it will be seven "major" books covering the greatest conflict points, and at least ten shorter books that take a closer look at the personalities and relations of key characters at different points of the canon.

I think a good saga title would be just Battleworld. It's catchy, grandiose and to the point. As for titles, it would depend on each individual book. For Cecil, for instance, a good title might be, "Her Knight Abhorrent."
When will you be starting the RP again?

Due to my life and job getting in the way, and due to the fact that I am getting some ideas that refine some characters and events, I think it should wait until I am satisfied the characters are more fleshed out and alive, at least to myself, and at the same time the community is more active.
Some titles that come to mind, in association with the characters the story focuses on:
Utopia's Apocalypse - The emergence of the Corrupted, and how Glinda and Cecil first met. The Price of Paradise - Michael Eden's dilemma on whether to let the Chosen Ones fight or stick to their pacifist ways, and the consequences of that choice. Reflections - A collection of the inner monologues of key characters when they look back at how the conflict escalated, which will probably be one of the later releases in the series. Transcendence of Villainy - The Strategist's rise to power and his early conflicts with the Global Forces and the Mages. It will focus on the adversity between the Strategist and David Adams. Omega Unleashed - After a certain series of events leave the world worse off, members of each faction are forces to rethink their stances and priorities before it is too late, and the balance of power shifts to deal with the new status quo. This is one of the last books to be written.
I was considering having a book about a secret history between two major characters who belong to different factions, which probably involves some intimacy, but decided otherwise. That's not to say there wouldn't be one, only that it wouldn't warrant its own book.
