Help Me Petopia Community...

Unread post by TygerDarkstorm »

You're my only hope. Well, not really, but I needed to make a Star Wars reference. :lol: But I really could use your guys' help! My classes this semester have led me to be inspired to really try hard to turn my love for crochet into a small business. This means revamping my image as I really settle down on a theme and what I'm doing! :D

For the start, I will be focusing on crocheted hats and scarves, later, when I can make it more of a reality, I will probably find a supplier to supplement with non-crocheted pieces that are complementary, and everything in my "store" will have a whimsical, fun theme. The slogan of the "store" is Wear A Little Fun!

With that in mind, please answer the poll with the name you like best. If you choose other, please, please leave a comment with your name suggestion (choosing other and then saying nothing doesn't really help me). Please keep in mind that the name is something I will have to try and trademark! So I have to be careful not to copy other stores (still need to check these names) or something that could get me in trouble with licensing (ie no Disney names). :)

Thanks y'all! :D

And in case anyone might be wondering... I personally am leaning towards Whimsical Manse as I have ideas for how I can make my displays and such for that theme/name, Wonky Wears is totally my new favorite, but I'm curious to see what people have to say/think. :)

I think shorter names are always better. Try to be as unique as possible the market for these things is fairly large with sites like etsy so if you stand out it'll be awesome :) :hug:

I wasn't really looking for a pun name for my business, and I definitely would prefer something shorter. Thanks for the suggestions folks. :)

Also not looking for yarn related names as I'm not just going to be selling crocheted stuff. I'll have to keep thinking.

Thinking of just converting my existing business name as it's something I really like. Go from Ashed Creations to The Ash Boutique.
