Looking at the history of people having the power to name things online... not a good idea.
You will get names like 'Stabby McStabber' or '8r04dsw0rd' or insulting and other inappropriate names.In such case people will have the choice to just not buy it. possibility to name such items in my opinion would be really great,. You could pay homage to your favorite series, etc.
Of course, it has to have some restrictions - few examples/ideas:
You can only name crafted items of specific quality, like Epic or Legendary. So there won't be any "grey" items, each one with unique name.
Naming an item could require usage of some additional components, making the production of such item more expensive.
Add possibility to change the name of the item. Either by a different item (magic scroll or something) or by usage of appropriate skill of blacksmith/jeweler/crafter.
In addition, it would be great if an item could have a 'crafters mark'. A signature with player name who have created it, so it would be known to all who has made this awesome item.
Similar as mentioned above, adding a 'crafters mark' could be available after achieving a high level of crafting mastery and would require additional components to be added.
I definitely agree with you on the first point, a crafter should definitely have the option to name their weapon but only if it is of Epic / Legendary quality, but I don't think that should incur the cost of additional components.
