I don't read Japanese, but I know a few words...

"tetsukaze" would be the iron wind. "haganekaze" or "koutetsukaze" would
be the steel wind, which might be more appropriate. (If there's a shade
of meaning between "hagane" and "koutetsu" I don't know it, though
"koutetsu" can mean "armour" as well as "steel".)

For the name, I suspect that something like (name) Toukougami
(swordsmith-spirit) might be appropriate.
