The Cenobites are fictional extra-dimensional, demonic beings who appear in the works of Clive Barker, first introduced in Barker's 1986 novella The Hellbound Heart. The most popular of the Cenobites, which Hierophant bears a resemblance to, was nameless in the original novella but was then nicknamed "Pinhead" by the production crew and fans of the first Hellraiser movie. In The Scarlet Gospels, he was given the official name of "The Hell Priest" by Barker.
However, the term "cenobite" also has roots in Monastic tradition. "Cenobite" is used to refer to monks within the monastery, most commonly used in Buddhism and Christianity. This ties back into the English version's name, Hierophant, which is a word for a priest in ancient Greece, who interprets sacred mysteries or esoteric principles. This creates a link between both the historical and pop culture inspirations for the character as it appears in Tokyo Mirage Sessions #FE.
