The Nameless is the spear Eshmel carries in Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave. Its description explains the name in one line: this is a weapon that lost its original power, and lost its name along with it. No unit other than Eshmel can equip it.

As a spear it inherits the type property that replaces the old weapon triangle in this game: heavy damage against cavalry. The 20 Uses are spent only on Combat Arts, not on ordinary attacks, which is the general durability rule in this game.
The Name
The Japanese name is 無銘の槍, Mumei no yari, which reads as "uninscribed spear". The wording is doing real work: a Japanese blade or spear was traditionally engraved with an inscription when it was finished, so a weapon with no inscription is one whose maker, lineage and identity have been erased. The English name carries the same idea in fewer syllables.
In Battle
Preview footage shows Eshmel using The Nameless against the risen dead of the underworld, which fits the ruined 1454 era the story opens in. One account describes the spear pulling itself back together during a Blaze Art, reforming into the shape held by the statue of Solel that stands over the temples in the capital. That detail comes from a single preview reading of a cutscene, and this wiki has not checked it against the released game as of September 2026, so treat it as provisional.
Upgrade in Part III
The spear does not stay nameless for the whole game. In Part III, once Credna's temple has been repaired on the world map, speaking with Credna powers up Eshmel's spear. One walkthrough of the released game gives the upgraded weapon as the Shining Spear and suggests the upgrade opens only after Credna's request is complete. The protagonist's Blaze Art, Purifying Flash, is covered with the rest of the system on the Blaze Arts page.
