在发展您的品牌时,没有什么比命名您的业务、产品或服务更重要的了。
名称是品牌的核心。 它说明了品牌的个性。 它启发了品牌的设计。 在您的品牌世界中,它的口语、书写、聆听和阅读比其他任何东西都多。
这需要深思熟虑。

亚历山德拉·沃特金斯(Alexandra Watkins)的“你好:我的名字很棒”一书(Watkins, Alexandra. Hello, my name is awesome: how to create brand names that stick. Berrett-Koehler Publishers, 2019.),是一个简短但有力的指南,可以帮助您建立一个了不起的品牌名称。

作者成立了专门起名字的公司Eat My Words,设计了如下命名原则(标准的测试方法),这在用设计思维的方法来给新建组织(公司)命名中可参考:

这些原则被称为“Smile and Scratch”(都是首字母缩写词),其功能如下。

Smile:(评估你的命名是否具备以下重要的品质)

SCRATCH(帮助创业者决定该名称是否应该弃用)


以下原文供对照学习:
It’s called “Smile and Scratch” (both acronyms) and it functions as follows.
SMILE
When considering your naming longlist, advance all names that can be categorised as follows.
Suggestive
Names that evoke something (that you’d like to be evoked) about your brand.
Meaningful
Names containing terms that are likely to ring true with your audience.
(Side note: better for a name to be long and meaningful than short and meaningless).
Imagery
Names that cunger images that will aid in memory, making it much stickier.
Legs
Names that have extended mileage and will still be appropriate as your product or service offering grows.
Emotional
Names that move people (in a positive or endearing way).
SCRATCH
When considering your naming longlist, discount all names that could be defined as follows.
Spelling challenged
Names that look like a typo — the misspelling of the name will plague the brand forever.
Copycat
Names that are similar to competitors’ names or other household brands.
Restrictive
Names that do not allow for the future growth of your product or service offering.
Annoying
Names that feel in any way forced or are likely to frustrate customers.
Tame
Names that are boring, functionally descriptive, or lacklustre.
Curse of Knowledge
Names that only make sense only industry insiders (unless, of course, your audience happens to comprise industry insiders).
Hard to pronounce
Names that are difficult to say and/or may be phonated in a number of different ways.
