THIS REQUIRES LOOTLINK
Make sure your game is closed, and follow these steps:
First, go into your /World of Warcraft/WTF/Account/*your account*/SavedVariables/ folder. Open up Lootlink.lua in any text editor of your choice. Do a search for your weapon. I'll use Thunderfury as my weapon.
OK, I've found the weapon I would like to change. Here is the info that came along with it:
Now, you have to leave the name EXACTLY as it is. You can't change that at all, BUT you can add to it. As long as the default name lies within the item link, you will be fine. Now to change the item:
As you can see, I did nothing to change the name of the item, or any of the stats listed below the name. All I did was add to it. Now, I save the .lua file, and load up WoW. I type /ll to bring up Lootlink, and filter by name. I scroll down the list (because you can't search for the item since it doesn't really exist) until I find the name of the item (I pretty much just look under the b section), and then I shift-click on it to link it to everyone else.
That's basically all there is to this. The cool thing is, if you own a private emu server, you can get all of the cool GM items into a Loot Link database, and transfer them over to the database that you play on the Blizzard servers. I made it so I had the GM's robes and such named after me. There is a ton of stuff you can do, but I'd stay away from the offensive stuff, unless you are willing to accept the consequences.
