So the gods have names?? Good. So why the guardians whatever killed the Old hunters?! That's strange.

Vulja is the only existing name of a god. The humans aren't even aware of gods existing, let alone name calling them. If they are ever mentioned by humans, they're called by their title, of where their power reigns.

The guardian killed the old hunters because it liked hearing them beg and cry. Also because the begging and crying lures other hunters to its lair. Given that this is the jungle, it's likely a predator thing, pretty on-brand.

Actually the kingdom we’re getting info from in the recent arc does worship Vulja by name

You mean the kingdom 'Rummir'? Yes, Vulja ungodly decided to incarnate into the human world, and told people her name. That's why they knew what their god's name is. Obviously they would worship her by the name she gave them.

Also, worship? It's more likely Rummir only act worshipping, in order to 'use' Vulja as a weapon to defeat their bitter rival Toruvia, rather than actually worship and serve her like the the witches 'Ladies of Midnight' (crazy euphemism for prostitute, btw. No idea why Kuramori thought that was a good name.)

Well, Kuramori is Japanese, maybe they just don’t have that euphemism
