Cooper has done a few with the letters of Crono rearranged (Ronco and Onorc). A few more letter rearrangements could be

Ornoc
Ocron
Orcon
Ocnor
Noroc
Nocor
Nocro
Ronoc
Rocon (lol, Rock on)

I am not sure if we could use any of these without it being awkward though, but it is worth mentioning. Ornoc sounds plausible, though.

Is this going to be a clone of Crono, Crono's doppelganger, or a possessed form of Crono?  If so, I don't see any reason for the evil Crono to have a different name (except for the name of whatever agency is possessing him).  I suppose you could make up a last name for Crono and have him refer to himself as Lord Whatever, or something along those lines.

why not just pull a kingdom hearts and scramble the name with an X in it?

Thats up to the fan fic writers. For me, I am just assuming that both Crono and an evil version of Crono exist, and the evil Crono needs a name. As far as I am concerned in my story possession is out. Can't have Crono vs. Crono with a possession.

We could leave naming up to the creator of said fic. Who says we need a uniform name? Sure, it's a nice default, but it dampens the creative spirit.

It was replaced by an X, thus denoting the mysterious nature of the character so named.

how would you pronounce something with an X in it like that?

I definitely don't view this as creating a cannon name for Dark Crono. I just needed some help naming said character, and I am sure others were trying to think of a good name too. Based on the poll so far people seem to like Crio, but I myself plan on using a different name in my fics. All in all we should still leave it up to the author; we're just throwing arround ideas here. In fact I never would have thought of the name I am going to use without this topic. So we are indeed helping the creative process. So keep up the suggestions.
