She named it Tinkledeath because of the sound it made when she tapped it. Tinkledeath was shown to be able to cut through 4 inches of granite as if it were paper and able to slice a man in half.

The name "Albitr" (all-bit-ur) was said to mean "exactly what it sounds like" by Angela, so it could mean that Albitr means "all bite(r)", or perhaps, "all wounding".
