Opinions on my business name

mishkanorman

I am an Usborne books at home rep and need to give my business a name, mainly so I can set up a facebook page but also to give a bit more unity to what im doing,

So i need ideas, it cant have 'usborne' in the name but obviously need to indicate that im selling childrens books !

So far ive got,

Books for little monsters
Books for little hands
Borne to read
Books children will love


any ideas ??


TIA

What do you current customers know you as?

My opinion;

Books for little monsters - this is the best but does favour a particular customer group.

Books for little hands - this isn't too bad but could be taken literally.

Borne to read - too cryptic, I like what you did but I don't believe it quite works.

Books children will love - this sounds more like a series of books to me.

As always make sure you're not treading on anyone's intellectual property toes.

thanks, no-one knows me by any name at the moment, I have only been attending baby groups etc that dont require me to advertise in any way,

I like 'borne to read' the best so far as its simple and i dont really need to have a 'brand' name as such it would just make it easier !

opinion welcome though

Yes i like that one to 'Borne to read' its the one that stood out to me and was also connected to your product, i thought it was clever :T

But thats just my opinion x

A bit early in the morning for me and I'm probably missing something but what's the reason for "borne" and not "born" ?

There's a little lateral-thinking article from the States here on one view on naming a book club...........which I probably agree with!!

Saw this and and instantly thought of 'Born and bred' so change it to read 'Borne and read'

Good luck with your new venture though hun.

If you plan to go into schools, then choose something that doesn't make it sound too young. Books for Little Monsters is great for baby groups but it will be impossible to sell that name to a secondary school librarian.
