I’m starting a small business making collars for pets. I’m looking for a unique name as there are so many collar designers out there. I did choose some names but when I checked they were taken. I’ve got a long list of ideas but none of them really click for me.
I would really appreciate some help. Thanks!

I don’t know if it will help if I list some of the ones I tried. A few of them are from your site. I would like the name to be 2 words if possible. I chose some with more but I’m wondering if they are more difficult to remember.

Here are a few that I tried.
Zuzu’s Closet – that was my original name but I think I need a name with a collar reference. Zuzu is my dog.

Collar Me Beautiful
Doggy Style
Puttin’ On The Dog
Mod Dog
Purple Pig (I have no idea why, but I liked it)

Here are a few I was thinking of tonight…

Collarama
Collar Buzz
Collartistic
Collartopia

My friend has a collar company named Collar Mania so I thought some might be too close to her name.

Sorry I’ve written a book but I hope it helps a little. Thanks so much!

I like ModDog.

BowWowBling
CollarCouture

Thanks very much Lisa! Unfortunately Mod Dog is taken and has an Etsy shop which is one of the places I plan to sell.

Great names! Thanks again.

ETA:
I checked your names and they are taken. I’m not surprised.

Sorry for the double post. I forgot to list ICandy or Eye Candy Collars. When I mentioned that one to my sister she had no idea what eye candy was. I thought everyone knew that but maybe I’m wrong?

If you like ‘Zuzu’s Closet’, there is no reason why you can’t use it if you just add a strapline that says what you do; for example:

Zuzu’s Closet | Fabulous collars for fabulous dogs

…if you like the principle of this, get the team working on a strapline rather than a name…

Thank you, Chris! My thinking was that if I can’t find a name that I love I would use Zuzu’s Closet. I just didn’t know if it was important to have “collar” in the name.

Not if you have a strapline that you associate with the name; it is very common practice to handle a brand this way.

Thanks for the info, Chris!

Or just name it Strapline

Thanks Quark!

I was hoping for some name suggestions if possible. Thanks!

I liked Strapline

Pet Rocky
Dogtown
Curb Appeal
Modnod

Neckles
Neckelodian

Thanks Quark! I guess I don’t quite get Strapline but when I googled it I learned a bit about straplines & would like to use one.
As Chris explained, it will give me more freedom with my name.

I’m intrigued by Neckles. Maybe I can use a strapline that says something about the best dressed pet/s wearing them or something.

Does anyone like any of these? I was playing with words last night so some are mine & some were given to me by a friend.

The Artful Dogger (or collar)
Chic Freak Designs
PawPrint Designs
Decked out neck
Got U Collared
Collar Art
Dreaming Dog Designs
Art Paw
Ultimate Neckwear

Thanks so much for the help. I really appreciate it.

I think @quark is just playing off the “strap” in strapline being like a collar or leash. “Strapline” is what @chris and the Brits call a tagline.

Thanks Snark,

That’s what I thought it must be but I’m not sure most people would know the meaning of the word, not that it matters. Thanks for the explanation!

I really haven’t been able to come up with anything I love and I need to get this done so I have to choose something.
I was thinking of using The Artful Dogger or Dreaming Dog but I would need a good strapline with it.

Does anyone have opinions on The Artful Dogger or Dreaming Dog? Thanks!
