CareBear Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 How about something about taking care of yourself in french or whateve....Bon pour moi or whatever.... or It's all about ME! (how do you say that in French?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nanasnecessities Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 I wouldn't go french, people will not tell their friends about you if they can't pronounce your name and have to figure out how to spell it. I really liked a french perfume, but didn't have a clue how to say it. It was embarrassing to answer people when they said I love your perfume, what is it? PLUS asking for it at the store was really FUN...I would keep part of you old name and add something southern to it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted June 6, 2006 Author Share Posted June 6, 2006 I have nothing against any other language Ashlie.. I do want people to be able to prounce it, or at least make it recgonizable. Like L' Occtaine (sp) Everyone knows who it is, but no one knows how to pronounce it, even their employees pronounce it differently! This was so easy for me the first time around!

NattyCat Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 french sounding is good - my own company is based on the french word for Magnificent (Magnifique) - I added the word "Scent" to it and my company is called Scentifique. I, like you wanted a non-prim, sophisticated sounding name and I'm real happy with mine. Perhaps you could blend two words together with a french influence AND an english one?

Ashlie K Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Bunny all I was saying is that you have some nice words in Italian as well that can be remembered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunny Posted June 7, 2006 Author Share Posted June 7, 2006 I know girl.. Didn't mean to sound crabby. It was just a lot easier when I didn't know anything about anything. Now I know what to look for, and can't seem to come across it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobinInOR Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 My, you *are* in a pickle aren't you How dare someone have your name lol....Hmmm. Chez Bunny? Chez Bunni? Chez Lapin? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CareBear Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 Or something completely different. Like the name of my favorite salon is Thomas Alexander. I asked the owner why and she said it was her brother's name and she always thought it sounded sophisticated but not pretentious. I agree.How about something like migrating since you headed south (you did head south, right?) or some bird that goes south for the winter (not the Canada Geese that poop all over) or like Monarch butterflies that migrate to the south.(bunnies tend to stay local.)I like the sound of Monarch, and you can do a lot with design on it (or another butterfly like the Swallowtail, or whatever). And it sounds a little sophisticated (as in queenly!) Monarch-something, Something-Monarch.... hmmm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grumpy Girl Posted June 7, 2006 Share Posted June 7, 2006 I always wanted a storefront named: Ho's R Us.I suck at naming things. I'm lucky I came up with my own and it isn't a cussword.Since you're in Tejas now, do you think a "Texas" thing is in order or is that just too weird. Go for whimsey when all else fails. *I see that someone already mentioned the spanish thing, oops. Maybe it's not a good idea.Excuse me, it's late and I know I'm babbling. Ignore me.

I never even really thought about the name of my business seriously before I went ahead and named it. :rolleyes2 Now I am stuck with it (for the time being). Ooops! Meant to say that I love the way "Belleza" rolls off the tongue when pronounced. So it's my favorite of these. Not that this means anything!

Or something totally different? Potions by Jeannine? Jeannine's .......

The_Dallas_Texas_Dean Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Bunny, personally I love the original idea from your mother:"Le Papillon Embrasse"Trust me, there ARE some of us that look at that and do NOT see the bras. I think that almost everyone knows what a "Papillon" is..ok maybe not....who cares...no one knows what a Diptyque is either! I think it looks and sounds very sexy, AND endearing! I could see amazing marketing materials (of course using kisses and butterflies!)Make your mom happy!:highfive: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
