Yes obviously they wont call Great Katana's weapon class Great Katana in english, they didn't call any of the Weapon classes by their actual weapon name but a edited version of the name from latin. I don't know what Great Katana could be following their translation methods so far. So they might have to improvise.
I don't see it being Samurai. But Bushido is probably the best choice, As the Katana is Bushido's primary weapon of choice. If not Bushido then Parivir (Job name from Tactics Advanced 2 that was essentially a Samurai.)
