When you enchant an item, what do you name it. It has to have a name. I personally keep ttrying to steal names from others games. It's hard to come up with names that are unique. How about you ?

Elven shortblade= Elven Might , 15pts fire and 15 pts shock

Glass dagger= Hot Glass, 40 pts fire

Glass bow= Bow of Doom= 20pts fire and 20pts shock

When naming a enchanted Item, I tend to go by:
A.)What would Make sense in TES
B.)What the character would name it
C.)What sounds cool.
D.)And try to relate the name to the enchantment

My Dunmer Theif Irvyn for example, carries two weapons. "Irvyn's Blade" his enchanted elven shortblade, it has a damage health enchantment, and "Red Mountain's Fury" a ebony bow with a fire enchantment.

The first is merely the character's claiming of ownership of the blade. The second makes sense, sounds cool, relates to the enchantment (Red Mountain is a volcano, and has ebony, so a ebony bow with a fire enchantment = Red Mountain's Fury), and makes sense. cool.gif
