little wheel Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 One of my friends named his sword Nova Donis Pacem, which means “The Gifts of Peace”, which is pretty cool. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HipsterStick Posted July 31, 2018 Report Share Posted July 31, 2018 There's Orcrist, Glamdring the Foehammer, and Anglachel/Gurthang from the Tolkien Mythos- all awesome names. Not a book, nor from a fantasy series, but Prophet's Bane from Halo is the Arbiter's energy sword. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Straight_Outta_Arrakis Posted October 19, 2018 Report Share Posted October 19, 2018 Blade of the Immortal (actually the title of the comic but pretty cool name for a sword) and the name of one of the protagonist’s weapons (when translated) is Sister Defender, which I think is pretty amazing. Tessaiga (translated Iron-Crushing Fang) Tenseiga (Heavenly Rebirth Fang) Also always thought Ghanima, the character from Dune, would be a cool sword/weapon name since, if I remember right, means spoil of war. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is totally badass: the Lightsaber So...orphan farm kid meets an old dude in a cave, gets a sword, and goes off to save the princess from the guy in a black helmet? No, no fantasy to see here. Move along. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quantus Posted February 1, 2019 Report Share Posted February 1, 2019 The Magnus Chase series took this to a whole new level. The Dwarves there name everything they craft. Every. Single. Item. Each one is entirely unique, often has unnecessary features (like a beer mug named "Boom-Daddy" that would explode if you ever let it get completely empty), and it's considered impolite to use something without first asking its name and history. So you walk into a bar and must ask the bartender for the Name of the stool before you sit down, and you get things like "Rear-Rester" or "Keister-Home, Famed among Barstools, it survived the Great Bar Fight of 4109am!". There was even an old dude with a walker named "Granny Shuffler"...it had rocket launchers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
