Too many new companies and products have names that look like the results of a drunken Scrabble® game (Xobni, Svbtle, Doostang). In this entertaining and engaging book, ace naming consultant Alexandra Watkins explains how anyone - even non-creative types - can create memorable and effective brand names.

A good name makes you SMILE because it s: Suggestive - evokes a positive brand experience; Meaningful - your customers get it ; uses Imagery - visually evocative to aid in memory; has Legs - lends itself to a theme for extended mileage, and is Emotional resonates with your audience.
A bad name, on the other hand, makes you SCRATCH your head because it s: Spelling-challenged looks like a typo; Copycat similar to competitors names; Random disconnected from the brand; Annoying hidden meaning, forced; Tame flat, descriptive, uninspired; suffers from the Curse of Knowledge only insiders get it, and is Hard-to-pronounce not obvious, unapproachable.
In this ground-breaking book, you ll get practical, up-to-date advice, such as making sure that Siri and voice recognition texting spell your name correctly. You ll read never-before-seen stories about naming triumphs and train wrecks. And you ll see dozens and dozens of eye-opening examples - the good, the bad, and the so bad she gave them an award. Alexandra Watkins is not afraid to name names.
