I'm curious as to what you guys name your equipment (either through enchanting or just RPing). Personally I never could really think of cool names that I'd want to stick with so I just put my characters name "Salen Drath's" then what ever I'm enchanting.

So what do you guys and gals name your junk?

I don't have any enchanted weapons on my main account right now.. so yeah..

I choose my names from a list I have comprised of words from the ancient language of the Inheritance (Eragon) series.

Any ideas when/if you do?

i usually names my weapons/armor based on the Enchantment i've put in them and the class that my character is playing, like an imperial sword with fire enchantment for my imperial knight i've named Imperial Lightbringer :3

I named a Nord Ancient Sword with the name of every rank Ulfric gave me but I'm waiting for Dawnguard to name a Dragonbone Weapon "Stormblade".

I want to make an enchanted bow and name it "Sword"

I give them lots of names. All have meanings.
I always rename ulfrics outift something else.

But the stuff I make for sale and forcing up my enchanting, I don't name.

I have a blades sword with fire enchantment called Zutra, now. Nothing else. It means Ashes.

is this possible on Xbox to name stuff when enchanting? I dont enchant at all, only use stuff that I find with enchantments in it. But if I could name stuff I might get into enchanting....

I don't enchant weapons because I can't stand the look of the runes.

Three pieces of jewelry I have are Nayru's Ring, Din's Pendant, and Faroe's Circlet.

I also have the Pendant of Morgan LeFay, and my dragon armor is named after various dragons from mythology.

well theres the Yngol Helm. so i made a set of ebony armor to go with it, even though the helm is made from steel

yeah it is. i name the armor that i wear and the armor my follower wears

LEEEEEEERRRRRRRROOOOOOOOYYYY JEEEEEENNNNNNKKIIIIINNN.........S

I generally like to keep the enchanted equipment names to within the ES universe, when my character isn't modeled on one of my own. My current character, a mage, has:
- Varla Stone Amulet
- Aetherius Ring
- Aedric Craftsman's Band
- Aedric Beasthide
- Dragonsoul Boots
- Frostfire Greaves

They're all for various purposes, and he doesn't wear them all at once, but they're all powerfully enchanted through minor use of the Restoration bug (I like to keep things plausible -- it's ridiculous to have more than 100% elemental resistance, for example, or +10,000% magic regen. The game needs its challenge).
My previous character was built around one of my own characters, and while she doesn't use enchanted weapons of her own make -- Dragonbane and a normal Glass Bow are enough -- she did have a few pieces of enchanted jewellery. I never got around to giving her an enchanted set of armour, as it wasn't necessary. Anyway, I named the jewellery after things relevant to the character whose image I made her in.

I did the same thing in Oblivion, for many different items -- a few bows and a couple of armour sets, mainly. She has a suit of Glass Armour which is made up of pieces named after the character she's was based on; her boots and leggings were named as her father's armour ("__'s Armour"), and the rest of the set were named as a gift from her lover ("Gift from __".)

Edit: In Oblivion, I did it for spells too. One healing spell was called "__'s Embrace", also named after her lover, another related spell was called "__'s Sigh", named after a benign god, and her chief fire spell was named after another god from said character's universe.

I've got a "Legendary Smith's" set, and my Midnight Blade (ebony sword with Soul Trap), but that's about it.

I tend to use various names, but a favorite for my strongest armor set is name Ysmir's (insert armor piece)

Use names from Tribunal doctrine and Ashlander origins.. i would kill for some Morag Tong armor... that helm was awesome... and bonemold they can make it a heavy armor. But back to topic... Name them along the lines of Velothi Ceremonial dagger, or Dagoths' Hands , Have an amulet that fortifies Magicka +resist fire named Almalexias' will... you get the idea.

Once Ive named them the names of some ex-girlfriends, well... that was pretty cool but, they are best fitting for soul trap enchanting

I wanna name my weapons without adding the enchantments...... But I cant because they wont let me...... So I wont..... But nonetheless i still

When you have the enchants all set up before you craft it just hit "Y" and you can name them.



Yeah, it'd be nice if we could name'em without enchanting them, but I suppose that's better than nothing.

I use the dragon language. Currently I use a Forsworn bow named Ruvaak Peyt (raven rose).

Mostly by what they do, ex: a frost enchanted sword would be :drumroll: FrostFang, or my daedric greatsword is called oblivion's bite

Armor is actually named by spell effect, as i tend to make suits. ex: Smithysuit19 improves smithed gear by 19%, I find its way easier when i have multiple suits to name them that way, although my first armor i enchanted that was worth keeping was my battlemages armor called Warlock's armor, helm, ect.

On necklaces i try to name them like the games enchanted jewlery, ex: Duelists charm +onehanded damage, or ring of heavy blows for +two handed damage

I name them the names of weapons from the previous games. With similar Enchantments.
For example,
Steel Greatsword- BlackwaterBlade (absorb 20 points health. Absorb 20 points stamina)
Gold Diamond ring-Ring of Khajiti- (Water Breathing)
Dwarven warhammer-Sunder(2000 points fire damage) ( i used glitches)
Dragon Priest dagger-Witsplinter(Drain 35pts Magicka)
Elven Helmet- Ayleid crown of Lindai(Fortify alteration 15 Fortify illusion 15)
Elven helmet-Ayleid crown of Nenalata(Fortify Conjuration 15 Fortify alteration 15)
Blades Sword- Goldbrand (Fire damage 20 pnts)
Iron dagger- Fang of Haynekhtnamet(Shock Damage 15 PNTS)
Silver Greatsword-Chrysamere, (15 Fire Damage, Absorb health 15)
Ebony Armor- Lords Mail(Resit magicka 19 pts)

Here are some from my recently deceased battlemage’s collection.

She accidentally killed Meeko with a Mace of Burning, so she destroyed it at an Arcane Enchanter and made a new one called Meeko’s Sorrow. The new one had a shock enchantment.

The first time she ran afoul of a Thalmor patrol, she kept the Elven mace one of them used to try to kill her. She named it Freedom.

Her first enchanted mace was called Soul Beater, I’m sure you can guess that one.

Even my characters who don’t really use Enchanting often enchant things just to name them. The charges run out quickly, or they might be +1% to some useless skill, the enchantment doesn’t matter. It’s more about remembering which boots go with the blue dress (Jensa’s City Dress + Jensa’s City Boots, for example).

I rarely enchant my armor, but the most common name I have for my weapon of choice, which is the steel warhammer, is Crusaders Might. The most common name I have for jewelry atm is the items name with "Worn" in front of it.
