Lost Relic or Famed?

Which Blue Weapon title do YOU prefer - Lost Relic or Famed - and why? Does one sound better than the other? Does one fit these weapons more than the other? You tell me!

Edit: Remember, everyone's entitled to their opinion.

My two cents: "Famous Relic" might make sense. Or "el Patron Relic" or "Fabulous Relic" or "Exotic Relic" or...

Lost Relics because Famed Weapons doesn't sound right to me.

I agree with James, Lost Relic sounds better.

I'll go with "Lost Relic" because...well, they're El Patron's Lost weapons. It only makes sense for them to be called lost. I get why they call them famed, but Lost Relic makes much more sense

This is all psychological, we all "grew up" with the term "lost relic" and so now everything else sounds weird. But I agree, famed weapon sounds too.... too... I don't know, but it doesn't sound right.

I kinda liked Famed Relics to be honest.

Here's my two cents:

To me they are no longer "Lost Relics", because they have been found. And I really wouldn't call them "Famed", because they haven't been around long enough to be famous.

If anything, I think they should be called, "Ancient Relics". Now to me, that's a catchy name!

I think both have different uses. When you get a relic/famed and yell "relic!!" then lost relic makes sense as yelling "famed!!" sounds awkward. But when people ask the name and you say ex. famed blunderbuss or famed Grand blunderbuss then famed sounds better as saying relic Grand blunderbuss does sound weird.

I think Lost Relic sounds cooler because it makes them sound kind of mysterious and powerful

Lost Relic, but having a whole new relic class making us have Lost relics/Famed Relics would be awesome, and give us a better excuse for a larger inventory.
