I want a book name for my forge... For Blacksmithing guys. So think makers mark.

I really admit I want to do bridgeburner forge.. But is that lame ? ... Legal . I don't want to rename and stuff. I wouldn't mind being inventive as long as people on the outside get it.

*Stamps are like 1k for 2x sets... Small/large...

Help me think of a good Malazan level name ... Or book name ..

This is a extremely tough concept for me.

As a note ... It needs to be able to be stamped into metal too.. So consider that.

It looks pretty gothy, I presume.

Hust Forge (a bit of a cheat, but since the Hust blades are among the most significant weapons we see, it's appropriate)
Blackwood Forge (Blackwood forest provided the wood for the Tiste forges)
Withal's Forge (not sure you'd want to name it after the blacksmith who made a cursed sword?)

Not really a spoiler but just in case (it's a place name used in Forge of Darkness)

Spoiler

The only other blacksmiths (or those who forged weapons) i can think of in the books are Draconus, Barathol, and Hust Henerald. You could throw in Caladan Brood since he does a bit of work on a sword as well.

Maybe some play-on-words with Barathol's & Kalam's last name, Mekhar, as a substitute for "Maker" since you're... making things.

The Crippled Forge, though you may not get many customers and you may get told to change your name because it's not politically correct.

The Adjudicators Forge, were justice is made

Forge of darkness is probably a winner for a weapons forge.

Stylise it a bit if possible

Hood's Balls

Edit: Just saw Amp bet me to it.

I'd probably use Burn as my inspiration for a name.
