If the Mamluk Sultanate where slaves were nobles had an East Slavic/Ukrainian ruling class, they could eventually call themselves some permutation of Slava Slava Saqaliba.

The Democrinator.

Gonghe Regent.

The term "gonghe" was borrowed into modern Chinese for the word "Republic".
 
What about pre-1789 peasant republics/dictatorships? Perhaps the word "steward" could be used for the leader, or a more religious title?
 
Grand Pensionary is one you don't see a whole lot.

Generally I think some kind of military title is the best fit for early modern and earlier republics, since practically the only function of the premodern state was making war.
