I wouldn't read too much into names and such. Remember than this kind of things change quite a lot between different chapters of the series. It's not at all a given that a weapon with the same name will be associated to the same class.

No but it normally does mean players wont ever get those weapons :P

Death Penalty is Merlwyb onry.

I'm German, and I can tell you they're not of German origin. BUT you're on the right track. They sound more harsh, almost Viking-like. I'd say more Nordic, like Scandinavian or Norwegian.

Germanic isn't the same as German. It's a language branch:
