Which category has the most creative brand names? I’d be hard-pressed to pick one, but some particularly lend themselves to creativity and humor!

Hotbed Of Creativity

Check out this #tellthetruths video about hot sauce names. I also mention some of my other favorite categories where the naming silliness and brilliance abound.

Okay, so if you ever doubted whether or not I have fun with my job, here goes this video. It’s called “Hotbed of Creativity,” because certain categories really lend themselves to incredibly creative, and just ridiculously funny names. And one of my favorites is hot sauces. And I have a few examples here… Pain is Good, Artisan’s Blaze, Slap Yo Mama, Satan’s Blood… Great Balls of Fire, and this team’s absolute favorite, Spanky’s Monkey Butt Hot Sauce.

Believe me that’s the cleanest of a whole variety of butt-themed hot sauce names. Anyway, it just seems certain categories do that, and it’s really, really fun. And it’s a real opportunity and challenge, if you’re competing in one of these categories. Some others of these kinds of creative categories that come to mind are things like bourbon, actually… bourbon, wine, beer, all the spirits are just such incredible names. Also, I love makeup and skincare brands. Such creative names! Are there any others that come to mind for you that are great? Oh, I have one more, which is Porta Potty brands. I’m serious. I Shit You Not. Those are some of the most ridiculous names you’ll ever see. So for whatever it’s worth, if you’re bored, check that out. Let me know what you think. If you have any examples for me, you can keep it cleanish. Bye!
