"Tengoku no Bunretsu" ("Heaven's Divide"), I think, seems appropriate for the man whose name means "Eight Bridges of Earth". If it were to be pronounced without the possessive "no", it might roll off the tongue better

Also, if we remove the hook-edge at the end of it and turn the hilt into the head, it sort of resembles the image of a railroad spike, so it could alternatively be named "Tengoku no Hoyo" ("Heaven's Hold") as railroad spikes/nail-like objects in general are used to hold things in place. This wouldn't be out of place for this blade, as its size could hold someone fast with intimidation or with a critical blow to their person.

Either way, they're equally fitting in that the name's a balance between Earth and Heaven (Something common among Eastern ideologies), and makes a reference-subtle though they might be-to the translation of the owner's name.
