    A lot of times, the name comes from the connection that you have with it:

    - Is there a character back-story?
    - How did the build go? Difficult? Frustrating? Enlightening?
    - Where did the idea come from?
    - What makes it special to you?

    Just as examples, of course, but the act of naming a saber usually personifies the qualities that you see in it. Know what I mean?

    Ultimately, it's just something you've gotta do yourself.

    One thing you can do, is to take some "brave" sounding words, like "Guardian" or "Protector" and look up the words in a Thesaurus and find like words, and/or look those up in another language, like Latin, or maybe a language that your relatives or ancestors spoke. Like for me, I was looking up words to see how they sounded in Italian.

    I ended up not being all that original, because I decided on the name "Paladin", for my saber.
