Meaning MUTO is an acronym for "Massive Unidentified Terrestrial Organism." According to Godzilla: Awakening Monarch gives to all giant monsters as a sort of placeholder name. In this comic, both Godzilla and Shinomura were known as MUTOs before being given their own individual names.
Use MUTO is used to identify monsters that have yet to be named by Monarch. It is first used in the comic, Godzilla: Awakening , Shinomura and Godzilla before they receive their official names. It is later used in the 2014 film, Godzilla ,MUTO in the film. They, however, are not given official names and thus, are only known as MUTO.
