in the first game this weapons was called "scythe"

it is possible that From Software gave some items incorrect names on purpose

also, keep in mind, that Dark Souls is actually a fantasy fictional setting,

and devs are not obligated for historic accuracy, and can give any name to anything, and by that imply that fiction world has it's own rules, which may mismatch from real world ones
