"Need Help With a Name"


          

I want to start a business making candy wrappers, magazine covers, birth announcements...I'm sure you've seen these around. I am having a horrible time coming up with a name. There are so many names with candy wrapper, or wrapped in them that I'm looking for something a little more unique. I'm afraid if I used something like sweetmemoriez they would end up at sweetmemories site and I could lose business. Anyone have any ideas? How close should my URL be to my actual business name? Finding a URL that matches exactly might be a challenge.

I have been trying to come up with something for almost a month and I am just not getting any light bulbs going off in my little head

Thanks,
Donna

Maybe you're over thinking it a bit? I checked and donnaswrappers.com is available. Easy to remember - it has your name in it

(...and, yes, if you got the other spelling, they would end up on the other person's site and you would loose business - smart choice there)

I think maybe you are right. I've been really working at finding something unique and easy to remember that I forgot the obvious...duh That's a good idea. Thanks!

Try not to put your name in it, I know it is hard, but if you ever sell it, it will be hard for someone else to see it as theirs.
Try something like

"Wrap It Up"
"Just Imagine"
"Meant for You"
