You can use before insert event.

You can query all the fields from the opportunity in the trigger using the relationship field .

like if you have Opportunity__c field on the Custom object then yo can do :

 

List<Opportunity> listOpp = [Select id, Name from Opportunity where Id = Trigger.new[0].Opportunity__c];

 

and then

Trigger.new[0].Name =  listOpp[0].Name;
