What are some creative names you guys have come up with for weapons, armor, spells, etc?

i've created a ring called "The One Ring" it had chameleon lol

im going to make a bow called soul eater can you guess why ?

I made a Dwarven Claymore with a Transcendant Sigil Stone with Silence for 15 seconds called 'Spellbreaker'. Then I made a Silver Claymore into 'Spellshatter'. I made a Cuirass called 'Magius Negator' with a Resist Magic enchantment. I made a shield called 'Kevlar Shield' with 20% shield enchantment. I made my chameleon set the 'Darkness Pants' etc. I made a glass mace with 20 pts. Fire Damage 'Flamethrower' and then I made an Akiviri Katana with 20 pts. shock 'Akaviri Skyhammer' That's pretty awesome.

I struggle with names for my characters!

Buffy's bow is called Slayer.

Most of the rest of her stuff and all her custom spells are boringly named so they fit where she wants them in her inventory or spell book.

As far as character names, if you want to stick kinda with lore ones, here are a couple sites that can help generate TES names based on race/six:

Most of the time I find my names from other media (like from a movie, another game, etc) or pop culture.

Although I once made a custom enchanted perfect madness sword. Enchanted with frost and a couple of other effects to make the damage stronger, I named it Cold Fusion. Really, most of the time, the names I come up with are rather simple and uninspiring. Like Slasher for a daedric shortsword.

I made a blade with tons of effects called "Wrath of the Nine". I enchanted Sir Amiels ring and called it "Sir Amiels ring of Magic". I usually name things that soul trap "Soul Eater something something" or 2 Handed blades Soul Caliber .

can't weps you enchant yourself only have 1 effect?

that's clothing.

Oh yeah, my bad

Spear of Valhalla.
No wait that was in Morrowind

Dark Dagger - Daedric dagger enchanted with damage health
Annihilator - Ebony axe enchanted with fire/frost/shock/damage health. This one is combined with a weakness spell

I name spells with a formula, so that I can find and recognize them easily in my spellbook. So, for instance, I'll have a spell named:
@ Fire 15 + WF100/WM100
That's on-touch fire damage for 15 points plus weakness to fire 100% and weakness to magic 100%. Or
=( Shock 10x3x20
would be on-target area-of-effect shock, 10 points of damage for 3 seconds over 20 feet.

I name defensive/buff enchantments just based on what they are and what they do. Mithril Greaves of Strength or Ring of Night-Eye or Shock Shield Shirt or.....

The only things I invest any creativity in (and it's honestly not a whole lot) are weapons. I like one word names that evoke the effects of the weapon. Virtually all of the weapons that any of my characters use are enchanted with all three elemental damages plus soul trap, but I arrange the amounts and order of the damage to get whichever animation I want for the item. So, for instance, Dave's short sword, which uses the fire animation, is named Scorch. Mindi's war axe, which uses the shock animation, is named Limina. Kyla's claymore, which includes absorb health in addition to the elementals and uses the absorb health animation, is named Wither. Tina has a bow that does weakness to fire, frost and shock that's called Stagger. Sees-Two-Fish is a dagger specialist-- he has a bunch of daggers, all enchanted to do different things. One does fire plus turn undead plus soul trap-- it's called Reaver. His elemental daggers, which all do elemental damage plus weakness to that element plus weakness to magic plus soul trap, are named Flicker, Shiver and Bolt. And so on.

I have two characters with weapons that have people names. Claudia has a heavily enchanted dagger that does fire, frost, shock and soul trap plus weakness to fire, frost, shock and magic. It's named Jack. That was just a whim on her part. She thought it was sort of funny.

Hale has a war hammer named Fred. He's not all that bright and that's what he came up with and there was no talking him out of it. Worse yet, he speaks of it in the third person, and shouts things like, "You will now face the wrath of Fred!" which just isn't as threatening as he seems to think it is, but, again, he's not very bright.

And Bob has a sword that does command creature and command humanoid that's called Gamebreaker, because that's what it is.

Hmm, from what I remember, I have made:

Daedric Bow - Daedric Defiance
Glass Longsword - Eternal
Daedric Bow - Venom
Glass Bow - Glimmer Shot
Elven Shortsword - Elven Rage
Ebony Bow - Ebony Stand
Daedric Shortsword - Crimson

My three custom bows:
Vulcan's Fire
Hera's Fury
Zeus' Lightning

My claymore:
Caution: Hot Flame!

My blades:
Hell Hath No Fury
10D90 (an family joke, my young son, when he thinks of a very big number, it is this. He might ask me how long an errand will take, I will say 10D90, after which there is much gnashing of teeth and wailing)

Some spells:

Zombies!
Zombies!, The Movie
Showstopper
Panic!

My female bosmer uses a Akaviri Katana named Sunfire, its enchanted with fire damage and light on strike (its a vampire slayer sword)
My breton Divine Crusader has a spell called Touch of Death, its fire, frost, shock and damage health 75 points for 2 seconds.

My Assassin uses a bow called Sithis's Hatred, its a daedric bow with fire damage, damage health and soul trap.

My used killing gear is:

Muhahaha - ic = wrist irons with Fire damage
Also Muhahah - ic = Mage's hood with fire damage

My things I use but actually aren't good is:

Hood of boring = Mythic dawn hood with damage fatigue
Robe of boring = Mythic dawn robe with damage fatigue

Used Weapons:
Silverrend = Silver logsword Shockk damage 10
Spellmasher Silence 10 seconds
POTATO!!!!!!!!! = Restore fatigue 50 points on strike

Used spells
Caution! = Fire damage 30 ft 50 damage
Wateriser = Ice damage 20 Fire damage 20
Storm = Shock damage 10 damage 10 ft Ice damage 30 damage 50 ft

Frozen light Paralyze 2 seconds ice damage 15

Collapser = Paralyze 5 seconds in 10 ft
Berserker = Fortify Blade (or hand to hand or blunt) 25 points for 20 seconds, and fortify strength 5 points 20 seconds
Summon potato = restore fatigue 3 points
Summon Party = Restore fatigue 30 points, Health 20 points, fortify speechcraft 10 points for 10 seconds

This isn't mine, but since I haven't seen her on the forms recently...

Leydenne once said she enchanted some pants with fortify intelligence and called them "Smarty Pants"


My enchantments are usually elemental shields, with rather uninspired names including the words Grounding, Insulation, or Warmth.

By Feather-enchanted Glass Boots are named The Unbearable Lightness of Being, my Fortify Luck necklace is named Lucky Duck, my Ebony bow is named Bane of Sithis... and I can't remember any more. I was cracking myself up with some of the names I came up with (The Unbearable Lightness of Being and Lucky Duck included). I'm such an uninventive person.

I once made a really powerful spell with 50 flame, frost, and shock damage, 10 drain health, Light for 20 feet, and I think deteriorate armor.

I called it "NUKE".

Took a lot of magicka buffs, enchantments, and potions to actually make a my pure mage capable of using it. But I used it once. Only once. Toutius sixtius never saw it coming.. :shakehead:

We all know, he's a citizen of Skingrad. I blasted him outside the city gates. I found his corpse later somwhere outside Cheydinhaal. No joke. :blink:

One of my characters is wearing "Captain Beefheart's Magic Band". I have also called a small low-cost fire spell "Hot Rats", and a shock spell "Zappa".

"Hot Pants" & "Hot Seat" - pants enchanted with Resist Fire

"Slow Burn" - Custom spell: Absorb Speed and Fire Damage

"Soul svcker" - a sword enchanted with Soul Trap and Absorb Health

"Else's Garter" - Uh, on second thought, never mind that... :wink_smile:

I'm not very inventive with armor names, e.g. "frostguard" clothes enchanted with frost shield.
For weapons I have:

"bow of wasting flame" with weakness to magic and fire, with fire damage.

"shishkabob" deadric shortsword with the same enchant

Typically puts Zaria's first as it put it in the bottom of stack. Armor is pretty boring, might have a name depending on enchantment.
Weapons is more fun, sacrifice dagger: dagger with soultrap 2 sec+ drain health 100 in 1 sec, later updated to soultrap+ drain health 100+weakness to magic in 2 sec as I move from sacrificing scamps to fire elementals for azura's star.
Exponential blade, short sword with soultrap 2 sec + shock damage+ weakness to magic + weakness to shock. Named because it's double the magic damage each time you strike as long as you strike before weakness times out.

That's a good practical point. If you have sets of items to use together, naming them appropriately can put them next to each other in inventory. All my Chameleon gear has a "Hidy" name, so they're all adjacent when I need to find them (and that's spelled "Heidi" if the character is a female Nord!)
