It's a job title in his organization. Or he wants his name to remain anonymous. Or another way is to have other people calling him 'master' or 'the master' and let the protagonist work on whether or not she'll call him that automatically, or ask him for a name. When/if she asks, he says 'call me Master only if it suits you' but doesn't offer a name. Hell, there's a million different ways to go with it.
