When people name their guns, or swords, or other conventional weapons, we have I Call It "Vera". This trope is when people name their "weapons." Or in plain English, their arms. This also sometimes happens with fists or any other body part that can be used in a fight. Usually occurs in the context of a threat, an actual fight, or just standing in front of a mirror admiring their physique (kissing optional).
Frequently Truth in Television. See I Call Him "Mister Happy" for when people choose to name their more...intimate body parts.

Used hilariously during the Comedy Central Roast Of Pamela Anderson. After it's all over, she steps on stage to thank the people for coming, then very bluntly draws attention to her kinda see-through shirt. After apologizing, she then states that she couldn't have been there without her two best friends, "Poncho and Lefty," points at her breasts, then enthusiastically bounced them around. |

Yogscast Minecraft Series: Invoked in Episode 39 of the Jaffa Factory series. Sips mentions that he never carries any weapons (presumably because a big-shot CEO would rely exclusively on others for protection). Simon Lane jokingly suggests that he actually has the two lethal weapons of Lefty and Righty on him at all times. Sips says that's true, but corrects him on the names: Fuckin' A and Fuckin' B. Fuckin' A and Fuckin' B carried on to The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, where Sips's character, Princess Leia the lizard/wizard/fabulous prostitute, has upgraded them to throw firebolts. |

Cars 3: While training Lightning McQueen, Cruz Ramirez encourages him to name his wheels. McQueen finds it ridiculous, and half-heartedly calls them "Righty", "Lefty", "Backy" and "Backy, Jr." |

June in Armadillo Fists calls the armadillos she has instead of fists "Jocko" and "Judy." Justified since they're living animals grafted onto her body, so they're half body parts, half pets. |

In the My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic episode "The Mysterious Mare-Do-Well", Applejack calls her back legs "Bucky MacGillicuddy and Kicks McGee". In the episode "Applebuck Season" she even calls McGee out on being lazy when she can't drop all the apples off one tree with one kick (she is running out of stamina with her sleep deprivation). |

In an episode of How I Met Your Mother Ted tells Robin that he's going to visit Sandy, a co-worker who harassed her, and that Sandy will listen to common sense and reasonable discourse. Robin asks if that's what Ted named his fists, and Ted replies that they're his feet. He's a kicker. |
