A work has a title that refers to a specific object. Because the object is so specific in the title, you know without knowing anything else about the story, that, obviously, the heroes will have to quest to find this object, or protect it from the bad guys, or recover it from the forces of evil, or destroy it somehow. This often leads to a Title Drop. Something of a pet trope for fantasy novels and video games, but can occur elsewhere. Sometimes results in an Artifact Title if the series moves on. Can involve a Character Name and the Noun Phrase title, especially if the Noun Phrase in question is nothing more than a MacGuffin itself. Super-Trope of Character Name and the Noun Phrase. |

The Name Jar: The title comes from a jar full of names that's given to Unhei by her classmates at her new school when she says she hasn't picked a new name yet (some kids on the bus couldn't pronounce it, and Unhei didn't want that to happen again). | |

Fire Emblem: Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon & the Blade of Light: The Fire Emblem is the incomplete form of the Binding Shield, an artifact that keeps the Earth Dragons sealed away. The Blade of Light is the Falchion, a weapon that is capable of killing dragons. Both items are obtained so that Marth can def These two items also show up during the game's sequel, Mystery of the Emblem, as well as Fire Emblem: Awakening, where they are once again used to defeat Medeus and Grima respectively. Fire Emblem: The Binding Blade: The Fire Emblem is a gem that is able to unlock the Binding Blade, a powerful sword that was used during the Scouring. Princess Guinivere gives the Fire Emblem to Roy so that he may retrieve the Binding Blade to use against Zephiel. The Fire Emblem also shows up in The Blazing Blade, where it is stolen before Zephiel's coming-of-age ceremony, preventing him from becoming heir to the throne of Bern until Eliwood, Hector and Lyn recover it. Fire Emblem: The Blazing Blade: The Blazing Blade is the Durandal, the legendary weapon of Lycia that is given by Athos and Bramimond to Eliwood in order to defeat Nergal. Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones: The Sacred Stones are five stones that serve to drive away the dark influence of the Demon King. One of the stones also contains the soul of the Demon King; said stone is referred to as the Fire Emblem. Eirika's and Ephraim's mission during the story is to prevent the destruction of the Sacred Stones. Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance: Lehran's Medallion is an artifact which contains the dark god who brought about the Great Flood. Only beings of order are capable of directly touching the medallion without going insane, and in times of conflict, the chaotic energy within the medallion grows stronger, making it emit blue flames that give the medallion its alternate title of the Fire Emblem. Should the chaotic energy of war grow strong enough, the dark god will be released, and the ultimate goal of the heroes of Path of Radiance and Radiant Dawn is to prevent this. Fire Emblem Fates: The Yato is a blade that is only usable by Corrin. Over the course of the story, the Yato is upgraded, with its final form, the Omega Yato, also going by the title of the Fire Emblem. Fire Emblem: Three Houses: The Crest of Flames is the Crest of Sothis, the Progenitor Goddess of Fodlan. Byleth possessing this Crest is proof of their connection to the Goddess. Edelgard also possesses the Crest of Flames, due to the Crest-implanting experimentation performed on her. Also, the Sword of the Creator, another relic tied to Sothis and usable only by Byleth. Fire Emblem Engage: The game is spent seeking out the Emblem Rings, which allow whoever wields them to summon the spirit of a hero from another world. There's twelve of them, one for each previous Fire Emblem game (excluding remakes and with Marth representing both Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and its direct sequel Mystery of the Emblem), but a thirteenth Emblem Ring is created by the other twelve transforming a recently deceased Alear into a living Emblem. Naturally for this trope, this last Emblem is also known as the Fire Emblem. |

Keeper of the Swords by Nick Perumov sounds like a Word Salad Title at first, but later you learn that the eponymous Swords are the MacGuffin. The first book in this series, Diamond Sword, Wooden Sword, plays the trope completely straight. | |

Interstellar Pig by William Sleator refers, first, to a fictional board game titled "Interstellar Pig," and second, to an entity called The Piggy which is central to both the board game and the plot as a whole. The board game Interstellar Pig wouldn't seem extremely important when it first appears, but of course the title is something of a giveaway that it is important. | |

The Legend of Zelda series has several of these as subtitles, to various extents: Ocarina of Time, the titular ocarina being a magical instrument required to progress the plot in many areas of the game. Majora's Mask refers to the Artifact of Doom stolen by the Big Bad, which is inhabited by the Final Boss. The Wind Waker, which is also the name of the conductor's wand used to control the winds and travel in the game. Four Swords refers to the sword the main character uses to fight this game's specific antagonist. Well, sort of — it's actually named the "Four Sword", singular, but it splits the hero and itself into four, so there are in fact four of them. Phantom Hourglass refers to the item that, when filled with the Sands Of Hours recovered from bosses (which, interestingly, includes the Big Bad), protects Link from the curse laid on the Hub Level. The Minish Cap refers to Ezlo, who is a Minish turned into a Minish-made cap. He ends up being the reason behind Link's iconic hat. Skyward Sword is an interesting variation, as Link's main weapon, the Goddess Sword, was referred to as "the Skyward Sword" during development. |

Fire Emblem Engage: The game is spent seeking out the Emblem Rings, which allow whoever wields them to summon the spirit of a hero from another world. There's twelve of them, one for each previous Fire Emblem game (excluding remakes and with Marth representing both Shadow Dragon and the Blade of Light and its direct sequel Mystery of the Emblem), but a thirteenth Emblem Ring is created by the other twelve transforming a recently deceased Alear into a living Emblem. Naturally for this trope, this last Emblem is also known as the Fire Emblem. | |

Tintin has three titles that refer to stolen MacGuffins: The Broken Ear has a pre-Columbian fetish with a broken ear stolen at the beginning of the story. In King Ottokar's Sceptre, the titular sceptre is the most important article of Syldavian royal regalia, and is stolen by conspirators as pretext for a coup. The Castafiore Emerald belongs to Bianca Castafiore, who is paranoid about having her jewels stolen. The emerald disappears only after several false alarms. |

The Spelljammer setting of Dungeons & Dragons is named after a powerful, magical, sentient ship that everyone in the setting dreams of finding and commanding. The captain who successfully claims it as his own will be unstoppable. It is also named for the generic name for spacefaring ships, and for the people crewing them. Spelljamming and spelljammer have lots of related meanings in Spelljammer. | |

The Chronicles of Narnia has The Silver Chair, which doesn't turn up until quite late in the book, but still counts. It refers to the "vile engine of sorcery" (an actual chair made of silver) that is fashioned by the Queen of Underland to contain Prince Rilian for the one hour per night that he returns to his senses. | |

Demonseed Redux: The Demonseed is Title Dropped a couple of times and is a part of Big Bad's plan. In effect, it's Galadrel's genes that would allow making Nephilims for the war, which Chico as his son also has. How it works is not made clear, and [[Orphaned Series unlikely will] be. | |

Fire Emblem: Three Houses: The Crest of Flames is the Crest of Sothis, the Progenitor Goddess of Fodlan. Byleth possessing this Crest is proof of their connection to the Goddess. Edelgard also possesses the Crest of Flames, due to the Crest-implanting experimentation performed on her. Also, the Sword of the Creator, another relic tied to Sothis and usable only by Byleth. | |

Kingdom Hearts, strangely, has three separate things referred to by the series title. The Mind Screw here is whether the first two examples to be shown are just cases of mistaken identity. | |

Several titles in the Professor Layton series, such as The Diabolical Box, The Last Specter, and The Miracle Mask. These are each significant items (or, in the case of Specter, an apparition) which the heroes are trying to find in order to deal with the problems they're causing. Overlaps with Character Name and the Noun Phrase. | |
