So, my GM is running a game this weekend. we're starting at level 2 and only going to 5 in this game. or so he thinks anyway. he can never make up his mind. I have decided to do a Kukri wielding TWF fighter, taking heirloom weapon, so he's allowing both weapons to be considered heirlooms. As such, I wish to name my Kukris but can't come up with a good name. Eventually I want to enchant them with Frost and Shock properties, if that helps.

Well, I'm getting them enchanted with Frost and Shock. In the end, they'll be +1 Shocking Thundering and +1 Icy Burst. The way this campaign will go will kind of be like how KOTOR went, you got new powers, and eventually you realize you were a great warrior but you lost your memory. My guy is going to have the title "The Frozen Lightning Bolt" or some such, and so that wouldn't quite work.
Well if you wanted to be cliche in an anime sense, you could name them something like Raikiri and Shirayuki. xP (Lightning blade and white snow)

Lol not that. Definitely not japanese names

Hellscourge for the Frost, Flash for the Shocking one.

I like Hellscourge, not a fan of Flash
Hellscourge for the Frost, Flash for the Shocking one.
Except then everyone at the table will sing "AAAHHHHaaaaahhhh! Savior of the universe!" whenever the kukri "Flash" is named...

Ahh, dunno why I read shock and thought flaming.
How about Maelstrom and Hoarhyme?

Really liking those actually. Maybe a variation of Hoarhyme though? Like Rimewind?
I'm glad you found some better advisers than I. ;)

Maelstrom and Rimegale?
Alternates:Rimerazor
Hellrime
Rimesquall
and Rimewind works well with Maelstrom as well.

If it was Japanese it would obviously be Fujin and Raijin. The twin kami of Wind and Lightning.
Keen, aggressive weapons, capable of cruel cuts, this is how I see them.
Short names for short weapons (single word)
Perhaps Frostbite and Shocktongue? too cheesy?

A little lol. But I'm not getting them keened. I'm going to take improved critical. Flavor reasons, you understand. Vane the Frozen Thunderbolt doesn't need keen weapons, he's just that lethal. Frostbite reminds me of, like, arrows. Idk why. I'd name a frost bow Frostbite.
EDIT: and every time I'd hit them with Frostbite I'd say, "You've just been bitten" like Arnie

For keen I meant "18-20" critical threat.
What about name them as a pair (say, "The Fangs")?

Pain and Suffering get my vote.
Maynard and Cletus! :D
Meat, and Potatoes. 'Cause that is just the kind of fighter you are.
for the cheesy...say unto BBEG with a half crazed grin...
You have offended my family, allow me to introduce you. This is my brother Daryl, and my other brother Daryl.
Patience and Restraint. That way you can tell people, "You don't want to try my Patience or test my Restraint." :D

In that case, how about "Liberty" and "Justice" for all? ;)

So, my GM is running a game this weekend. we're starting at level 2 and only going to 5 in this game. or so he thinks anyway. he can never make up his mind. I have decided to do a Kukri wielding TWF fighter, taking heirloom weapon, so he's allowing both weapons to be considered heirlooms. As such, I wish to name my Kukris but can't come up with a good name. Eventually I want to enchant them with Frost and Shock properties, if that helps.
For a more option of names, I encourage you to do a little research.
Kukris are Nepalese in origin, and may have ties to Hinduism. A kukri will have a small notch at the base of the blade called the cho, kaudi or kaura. This is believed by some to be representative of Shiva (either her trident or her female parts.)A quick answer would be:
Dharma - righteousness
Artha - Livelihood, wealth
Kama - Sensual pleasure
Moksa - Liberation, freedom
The long answer would be to study some Hinduism, and see if there is something meaningful in there that makes sense to you.
Captain Shazam and Senor Guapo
You have.....no soul.
Pretty soon he won't have. =)
My suggestion is Twitch and Rocks, the latter because it's perfect for making drinks with ice.
Icingdeath and...
Sorry.
In seriousness, I'd think about the shape and feel of the kukri... they're small, very sharp, and a bit curved. Words like "talon" and "fang" come to mind. So, for a cheesy example, Frostfang and Thunderclaw.
I also like Cuchulainn's suggestion of Tempest and Blizzard.
Or name them for creatures associated with frost and lightning. "White Wyrm" and... idk "Will o' Wisp."
There's also translating anything you like but doesn't sound quite right into another language; online translators are great for that.
Shiva and Ramuh... =]~
Unicorn and glitter...
no?
Luster and Shade
Eerie blue arcs of mystic power dancing along its wielder's arm, the bright blade is named Implacable Voice of Heaven. They call the darker kukri Unrelenting Bite of Winter. Frost covers its blade, intricate crystalline patterns obscuring the night-black steel beneath.
Scalpel and Cat's Claw.
LOVE and HATE (matching tattoos on knuckles required)
Chilly Willy and Sparky
A/C and DC
Arcturos and Electrolux
