How do you decide on a shop/creator name?
Ive been struggling for a year now to find one i like that isn’t taken by someone else, or too close to someone elses.
i just thought mine wpuld be silly due to my user name. my irl business is called Crochet by my real name
Crochet by (name), Stitches by (name), Ami by (name) are all common ones. Also, I think you can take inspiration from other names without being exactly the same. An example of being too close to a name would be with my cousin and I. I had my business named Sara Handmade, and later Sara B Handmade since I started it. It is a very versatile name and I can sell anything I make under it. But my cousin named hers Stella Handmade. Stella isn’t her real name, its her pen name. Now, she does live like 12 hrs away from me, and doesn’t sell anything online, so I dont really care. But they are 2 very close names.
Well, I play the cello, I’m crafty, and I create patterns. Hence,
