Need a name for my new katana?

Posted at: 2015-05-07 
Katana names usually ends with "-maru" as suffix. It doesn't mean anything really - it's just added to names of samurai children / katanas / battleships. Considering these features I could suggest;

冬楓丸(To-Fu-Maru) = Winter-Maple-maru

雪楓丸(Seppu-Maru)=Snow-Maple-maru

鳳凰丸(Ho-Ou-Maru)=Phoenix-maru

吹雪丸(Fubuki-Maru)=Snow brizzard-maru

楓丸(Kaede-Maru)=Maple-maru

Call it Moopsta, named after me, because I'm awesome.

Tofumaru - also sounds like round tofu...

I just got a new katana, it's got a white sheath and handle (tsuka) with a stylised phoenix on the gold/bronze coloured hand guard (tsuba) and a maple leaf on the buttcap (kashira) and collar (fuchi). Thus I need a name for it. I would like one in Japanese, related to its features (white, phoenix, maple, winter ect.) thanks in advance.
