Is it because you use a reading squirrel as your logo?
I like it, because it demystifies the sword, whereas most sword names are uber serious. "Memory", "Sorrow" and "Justice" for example.

In larger part, it's because of this five year's long in-joke between me and this girl I know involving vicious squirrels

And yes, it doesn't seem too grave of a name, particularly since it was named such because of the "skittish" look to the light reflecting off of the blade.

I love Wolfe's odd translations (and outright mistranslations).

I think some of that was intentional, knowing him

Oh, yes. His incorrect translations are done on purpose (in Latro, at least).
