Ecthelion would be the bet no.1 for me, if not, then possibly Glorfindel. But I think Ecthelion would be the most fitting - warrior, strong etc. Isn't there some nice description of Ecthelion mentioning a nice sword (which we could just point at and say "yea, this must have been it!") for example in the tale of Tuor? Otherwise, I don't know. But knowing that Orcrist was supposed to be a very famous blade, I would expect also a rather famous wielder.
EDIT: x-ed with Pitch... interesting observation.
