For such basic attacks, no. But if a weapon is capable of executing a stronger attack, then using its name as part of the incantation is common. You could say it is as if you, the wielder, are speaking directly to the weapon to draw out more of its power.
However, realistically it's mostly due to the magical properties. Similar to summoning or casting as spell, referring to the weapon specifically helps keep focus.
