(Actually, I'm not - those are two of several name changes going into my own campaign...and shuriken are not even going to show up unless the party travels a long LOOONG way.)
I wasn't torqued off about the name itself so much as I was trying to understand what sort of a weapon he actually had in mind when he came up with that name - If I understand that, I can describe it to the players, I can guess what effects it might have, what other uses to which it might be put, what problems the players might encounter trying to use it in unconventional environments, etc. If all I have is an arbitrary name, a ST minimum, and a damage, I might as well be playing a computer game.
