If you're talking MMORPGS, I don't think you can go wrong imitating Tolkien.
You just have to be careful with the names:
Beren's knife Angrist
Anglachel later known as Gurthang the sword of Turin Turambar ("I will slay thee")
Glamdring
Narsil/Anduril
.
.
Dustie's uber sword of omgwtf-pwnage (ok, maybe we shouldn't let players name them)
Anyway, I like the general idea, give items a history, name, story, and some power.

"Hamilton is really a Colossus to the anti republican party. Without numbers he is an host within himself. They have got themselves into a defile where they might be finished but too much security on the republican part will give time to his talents and indefatigableness to extricate them. We have had only middling performances to oppose to him. In truth when he comes forward there is nobody but yourself who can meet him. His adversaries having begun the attack he has the advantage of answering them and remains unanswered himself. For God's sake take up your pen and give a fundamental reply to Curtius and Camillas" - Thomas Jefferson to James Madison
