We love cute or creative business names but, they’re not right for every business or product. In this post today we’ll share tips on what makes a name cute and traps for when not to use these names.
The Brandings Team often gets questions about about cute or creative business names. Examples of these questions include, could I use a cute name for my business, and do cute names stand out in my marketplace? However, it’s nearly impossible for our Team to answer these question without knowing more about your company and marketplace.
What Makes a Cute Business Names?
While it is true that it’s important for your business or product to stand out but you don’t want to stand out for the wrong reasons. Certain business names will only work in certain industries and for certain products, and this is one of them.
The Brandings team thinks that your business name should break the mold and be able to stand alone. In a cluttered world stand out and be original.
Thinking along those lines the Brandings team has come up with the top five great ways for you to break the mold and develop your own cute or creative business name.
Some of our tips include how to develop a cute name but not one that’s overly so. For example, no man will want to shop at the “Cuddly Kitten” sports store. This type of name by turn off one target market, like adult men but, still a great name for a girl’s doll shop.
Check out these tips to develop a creative business name. Then if you want to check out some examples of cute and creative business names that the Brandings Team has put together follow the link.
As a last tip, just don’t overwork the name or make it to Saccharin. People are really smart and know when they’re being “played with” or used, or even if you’re playing to them or tricked.
People know when you’re doing something for them and not, say, naming your business something cute because that’s what you are.
Hie people m looking for a name that is appealing for my baby wear business,plz help need to advertise
Thanks for the great question. I see that you’re commenting on the Cute Names for a Business blog and that’s a great place for you to get started. The naming team here thinks that a cute name for a baby apparel company would be perfect.
You want your name to be cute, fun and both appealing to Mothers and something that kids would like. That said, we think that a happy sounding business name would work well, a funny or whimsical name for a business, lastly we think a multiple industry company name would work as well.
Brandings also has quite a few business names perfectly suited for a baby related business. Here you’ll find toy company names, parenting company names and quite a few more related business names.
We think that you will find some perfect names for your baby wear business there. One last tip is that we suggest that you check several different categories and particularly some categories which are ones you would not have check before or don’t “fit” perfectly well. Sometimes you’ll find a name in these places because they’re unexpected or ones that would stand out in you field.
Thanks for the question and we always have our Custom Company Naming if you are still having trouble find a name.
That’s cute itself, “cuddly Kitten sports store,” I can’t see my husband shopping there! Maybe he should get my Mother’s Day gift there!
Thanks for your comment.
That’s exactly the point, a grown man would not go to a really cute named store unless he was buying something for his wife and even then he would probably cringe. We like cute names but again if you go too cute you are going to alienate half the population.
Thanks again for the comment.
