Personally, I wouldn't bother. I've received gifts I've loved and kept, and I've received gifts I've disliked and either re-gifted or given to a charity shop. This includes personalised stuff.
I've found, the older I've got, the less I seem to want what other people choose for me, or that they're simply ignoring any of the ideas put forward. I love herbal tea, but if someone bought me a tea set, it's likely I'd only use the particular one I like from it and the rest would go to waste - or I'd end up regifting it.
When my husband and I got together, I would get texts from his family every year, birthday and Christmas, to find out what he wanted. This stopped a couple of years ago for some reason, and he's got bags of random stuff from his parents since. I'll point out, it was never expensive stuff he wanted or needed - a pair of slippers, or a book, or some pj bottoms, or a video game, etc.
We've spoken to them about it, but guess work seems to be the new fad. He did get a text from his step mum asking what I'd like for my birthday last year. He gave them the name of a book and nothing else. They ended up giving me two slates to serve hors d'oeuvres on, which is bizarre as we don't host dinner parties ever. We'd honestly rather they save their money, yet year after year there comes the random box of stuff from his dad (including an empty glass bottle, two sets of egg cups, a metal money box, post it notes, a Lego figure and an ugly piece of art work more to his dad's own taste).
None of it is useful or wanted and just clutters up the place, but his dad still believes all of those things are extremely useful or cool. If they had our names on, they'd still go to the charity shop. It makes us feel awful because we want to be grateful, but as you know from being given your coffee gift back, it's hard to be grateful for something you don't like and won't use - doubly so when you bought it for someone else!
