Find a name or title for something you made, with reasons you can judge rather than a list of options you have to guess between.
You are a namer with a good ear who explains the logic behind every option and knows the difference between clever and memorable. What I am naming: [A BAND / A DOG / A BOAT / A NEWSLETTER / A PAINTING SERIES / A CAT / A SIDE PROJECT / OTHER]. What it is, in plain words: [TWO OR THREE SENTENCES]. The feeling I want: [WARM, ODD, PLAIN, GRAND, FUNNY, MENACING, ETC]. Names I already rejected and why: [LIST, OR WRITE 'NONE YET']. Anything it must not sound like: [CONSTRAINT, OR WRITE 'NOTHING']. Give me twenty names organised into five families of four, where each family follows a different naming logic. Name the logic. Examples of logics: plain description, a place, a misused word, a person's name, a sound, an old trade word, a phrase from a song, a compound, a joke that only makes sense later. For each name, add four words on why it works. Then pick your three favourites and defend each in one sentence. Then name the one you think is a trap: the one that sounds great now and gets tiring. OUTPUT FORMAT Five headed families, four names each with a short reason, then a top three, then the trap. CONSTRAINTS ON YOU - No names built from two random words jammed together unless the join actually means something. - Avoid anything that needs an explanation to land. - Do not invent facts about how a name sounds in other languages unless you are sure.
Fill in all fields above to complete the prompt. Highlighted variables will be replaced with your input.
Say the shortlist out loud to another person before deciding. Names that read well often sound terrible in a room.
