If you owned your own magic sword in Middle Earth,what would you call it ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

If you were in possession of your own special magic sword in the Middle
Earth universe, what creatively witty, cool (serious or humorous) name/s
would you give it, if you had to ? It can't be Excalibur, or any names
already in use in The Hobbit and LOTR trilogy books, but it's fine if
any name is taken from another fantasy world you greatly admire.

This is a very good question, I'm surprised it hasn't occurred to me before. I'll have to give it some thought.

Backtalker (inspired by The Answerer, Manannan Mac Lir's sword from Irish mythology). Haven't yet worked out how this would translate into Quenya or Sindarin.

Not too sure Pitchwife, but it could be something like Adambeth or Adangweth, meaning Answer Back in Sindarin.
