I name my quilts what ever hits me at the time. Sometimes, it's named for the pattern and sometimes it's for the colors I used. One, I named "A Promise Kept" because my wonderful Mother-in-law started it for my husband and passed away before she could finish it. Before she passed away, I had the chance to ask her if she would like me to finish it for her. She was greatful that her youngest son would get his quilt. She made 7 quilts, one for each of the older "kids" and my husband is #8. I helped her with each one except for the first 2 that she made herself. The quilt's name was because she promised each of her kids they would get a quilt from her and because I promised her that I would finish the last one for her. Needless to say, my husband treasures that quilt. My quilts have personalities so they should have name too.
