The Name Game - The Name Game

When it comes to decision determining a name for my maternity boutique that sells high-end organic clothing and accessories for the urban mother-to-be, I hashed out a number of common names that came to mind: the Bio-Bump, Whole Wheat Bun-in-the-oven, Babes in Momland, The Urban Organic Mama, Phat Mat ... you name it, I wrote it down.

I wondered how I could combine my specialty niche market with more creativity and sense to make it distinctive. Then one day, I thought of my own mother and my first experience of motherhood. The name Nima'ma came to me as if it had been there all along. The words ni Mama were taken from my own mother Woodland Cree dialect that "my mother" simply meant. It referred to the central experience of a mother and reverence for Mother Earth to be and everything organic.

It was nice. It was unique. It was mine! And with the approval of close friends and family, I moved the apostrophe, added a registered legal element to it, and voila! Ni'Mama Maternity Inc. was born.

However, if I had taken the time to explore more about the universal meaning of this word, I would have found out that it was with a derogatory Chinese slang "Its importance Mama!" Fortunately, a smile to me many of my Chinese customers jokingly mentioned it in my store.

so while playing the name game to examine the impact that the public's perception.

understand the image that you want your target market • Project and reflect

Rule # 3 -. C.E.O. (Chef owner Ego)

Each entrepreneur dies CEO for her name to the list of the world to prove that they take control of a growing business! But does naming your company with your own name prospective say what your company does?
