I don't think it's a relic of bygone sentimentality. In the world I'm from, it was very common for swordsmiths to name the swords they forged, either after themselves, or their school, or after special moment like a sword slicing through five corpses or a candlestick.

If anything, it's rather sad for me to think about all the swords that were forged and were never named.

Even though the era of swords is over in my world, I still think it's only fair to name the weapons or tools you either create yourself or personally use. Otherwise, they weren't really loved, were they?
