I've created a custom object in Salesforce with a number of custom fields. Is there any way to remove the "__c" from the API names of those custom fields?

    You can not, it's standard behavior __c differentiate the standard vs custom – sdandamud1 Oct 17 '19 at 16:55

It is not possible. Custom fields always have the __c suffix and it is not optional.
