Ideas:
Pinduel (Pin + Duel (Dual in french))
Painduel (Pain + Duel (Dual in french))
Duelpin (Duel (Dual in french) + Pin, it may also mean a duel with pins)
Dolphin (Dolor = Pain in Spanish + Pin, with an extra h to add feeling to the name)

One thing that helps me is thinking "wild pokémon's name appears!
This way, i hear if it sounds right in pokémon
To me, i like Voodoom,Voojitsu and my own Voothless, as to me, they just sound right

Here's a couple:
Ruineedle (Ruin + Needle)
Prievil (Prick* + Evil)
*Prick as in the pricking feeling from being poked by a needle of course. Not the other meaning ^_^'
Oh, yeah.

Final Submission:
Prievil
Because the heart shaped patch seems like an important part of the design, I think something like Thumpatch would be good.
Thump because of the fighting type. I'm not sure that it's the right word, though. I'm going to look for different words that ends in p and suggest fighting type.

Final Submittion
Pindoll, as it means "Pin" as in it has pins and "doll" as it is a doll. A simple little name that gives the person hearing the name a direct insight as to what it actually looks like.
EDIT: It makes a cool little thing how Pindoll is Togekiss's little doll that it controls to help it out in battle.

Final submission: Evilcise
A combination of the words "evil" and the latin suffix "cise", which means to cut or pierce. This makes sense. Black Magic is in a way "evil" and the pin through the heart can cut or pierce something one way or another. Simple and isn't overdone.

This reason is why I favor Voojitsu as CAP 11's name as my final submission.
Just throwing that out there.
On a side note, I don't really like Voodoom, Dukurai and Umbrawl because they sound too much like Houndoom, Darkrai and Umbreon, respectively.
I do like Voojitsu, as it really brings out the Fighting-type in CAP11. I'm surprised to see that quite a few names, Voodoom included, favor CAP11's secondary Dark-type rather than its primary Fighting-type.
Voodude or Voodood.
Pronounced like it looks.
Reasoning: It is a voodoo doll and it looks like a pretty cool guy. Definitely cooler than Geodude.

As much as Voodoom may fit, perhaps one might reconsider its spelling to avoid having so many damn o's in the thing. I don't know, it annoys me. Vudoom would look a lot nicer to me. Also I like names with an even number of letters in them (don't judge me.)
As a real submission, I'm going to go with Vudugete (voo-doo-gay-tay)
Spanish is a fun language to choose from, as Latin America's history of Mayan, Incan and Aztec rituals is not completely different than the concept of voodoo. "Voodoo" in Spanish is Vudú, and "toy" in Spanish is Juguete. The spelling merges together in a fasion like Vuduguete, but I considered that a silent 'u' like this is not really appropriate for a pokemon name. Removing it makes it sound more like something a Japanese person would come up with (although there aren't necessarily "vu" and "du" in standard pronunciations blah blah).
I'm okay with Voodoom as it is though, really.

So much ideas.... None is better than Voodoom.

I have an idea I rather like.
Final Submission
Masochre. [MAS-eh-kur] It's a corruption of Massacre with the letters from Masochism. Masochism means pleasure received from pain or punishment, which fits a living voodoo doll perfectly. It sticks itself with needles and it likes it. Massacre because it's powerful, but darker than just slapping the word "king" or "mega" on it somewhere.
Also I love reachzero's Pinloas.

Hmm...
Grief-Grief (coming from the name of Louisiana Voodoo dolls, Gris-Gris; http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Louisiana_Voodoo)
Painstake (Pain, stakes/needles)
Others to come,, no decision yet.

FINAL SUBMISSION:
Pincrushen
Pronunciation: Pin-krushin
Origin: Pincushion + Crush. Pincushions are routinely stabbed with pins, like CAP11 has endured by the time it evolves, and "Crush" adds fighting flavour with a somewhat dark connotation.
------------------------------------------
Looking back, I like Voojitsu, it combines martial arts and black magic in a really obvious way and flows.
Stitchit and Fistuff are nice, referencing two features of CAP11 that haven't been touched upon yet by other authors, who are focusing more on pin, needle, and voodoo. I think stitchface makes CAP 11 seem more like a cursed outcast than stitchit does, almost as if it has an ominous, derogatory nickname others call it that stuck.
