The naming and branding blog

A naming blog naming blog names

Posted by Steve on June 30, 2005 at 12:27 pm | 7 Comments

There is a dinghyload of great blogs out there, but only a few have names that play well off of the content and spirit of the material. Some of our favorite blog names, that also deliver great content:

Gawker may be the cream of the wheat. C’mon, say it in your best Edith Bunker voice.

Wonkette

Man Without Qualities

Blog Sisters: Where men can link, but they can’t touch

Rotten Tomatoes

The Smoking Gun

The Right To Remain Silent

Sadly, No

Nitpicker

The Fat Guy

Travelling Shoes

Mother, May I Sleep With Treacher?

Head Heeb

Not a Fish (provincially speaking)

Fark

Boing Boing

Protein Wisdom

Sand In The Gears

Mr. Blonde’s Garage

Megnut

Evhead

Let us know what we’ve missed!

    Gawker Media has some of the best names in the blogosphere, including Gizmodo, Jalopnik, and Fleshbot, which I hear is interesting.

    at one point there was a possibility that gawker might do a gay blog. su (the guy who codes all of gawker media, my boyfriend) and choire sicha (ex-gawker creative muse) were goofing on possible names. i think they settled on “assrammer” or “cockthruster.”

    C’mon, nobody has pointed out the obvious winner yet:

    Snark Hunting

    Oh, maybe there’s a conflict of interest in there somewhere. Oops.
