The only somewhat-variable approach is the one-handed and two-handed weapons for WHM and BLM, where wands are carried on the hip but staffs on the back - and they are quite simply a pain. Because they're categorised as different weapon types, they don't interfile in the armoury chest and you can't glamour one over the other.
Also I feel like carrying the larger axes on your hip would be just as bad for clipping, if not worse, because your arm would inevitably go through it.
