Exquisite mink eyelashes deserve a unique name that distinguishes them from the masses. Your product can be A++, but if it doesn’t have a moniker that attracts attention, it runs the risk of getting lost in the shuffle. Do not let this happen to you.
In addition to spotlighting your distinct lashes, when it comes to mink lash names, a solid one serves a variety of purposes. Not only does it easily identify your special product, but it also builds brand loyalty and sticks in the mind of the consumer.
How to name your mink lashes
When determining lash names, think about what makes for a memorable name in any product category. Let’s take a look at the shortlist:
- Consider your consumer
- Make it memorable
- Humor is good
- Alliteration
- Clarity
- Timeless
- Watch your copyright
First and foremost, it is imperative to identify your target audience. For the purposes of this example, we’re going to cater eyelashes to a millennial woman. More specifically, the mink lash names must resonate. Make sure the names speak to her. Think about what pop culture references stand out in her mind– but be careful not to be so trendy as to be obsolete in a few years.
It’s fantastic to be funny! Too Faced’s “Better Than Sex” mascara drew me in by eliciting a laugh– and kept me with the quality of the product. Now, it is the only mascara I buy and I am a loyal consumer.
Alliteration is another tool to really make a name pop. Take, for example, PayPal. That double ‘P’ sound pops. Wouldn’t you rather work with PayPal instead of PayBuddy?
Be sure to make the name clear. If your potential customers are scratching their heads wondering why their product has a certain name, it’s too confusing. Keep it simple in terms of pronunciation and spelling.
Finally, make sure there is no copyright infringement or trademark issues. In some categories, there is bound to be redundancy. “Warm Auburn Hair Dye” isn’t exactly unique. However, “[Your Name]’s Ravishing Red” is. LegalZoom can help you obtain copyright. A Google search can assist in determining whether or not something has already been claimed.
Types of mink lash names
Generally speaking, there are three types of names:
- Descriptive Names
- Suggestive Names
- Abstract Names
Descriptive Names
These names are straightforward and to-the-point. When you read a label that says “Volumizing, Root-Lifting Hair Spray,” you know exactly what to expect. These can be very effective in describing what makes your product unique in a sea of lookalikes. Believe it or not, it is entirely possible to be creative and clever with a descriptive name. MADD [Mothers Against Drunk Driving] comes to mind. The acronym tells you precisely what their organization does– and drunk driving is very much a cause that warrants anger.
Suggestive Names
Frequently cited examples in this category are Microsoft Office and the travel website/app, Kayak. Microsoft Office is not actually an office building. Instead, it is a collection of services designed to help you do business more efficiently– in essence, it’s a type of portable office that makes life easier. Similarly, Kayak is not a sleek boat but duly named to evoke thoughts of travel and adventure. These suggestive names allow consumers to connect-the-dots.
Abstract Names
One word: Google. What on earth is ‘a Google?!’ Sure, it’s become synonymous with internet search engines [everybody knows exactly what you mean when you say “Google it” even if you use Yahoo, Bing, etc.] but the actual word does not exist outside of the context in which it has been defined via Silicon Valley. The same goes for Kleenex. “Grab a Kleenex” is the universal code for obtaining a tissue. Both of these are extremely effective examples as they have been written into our collective verbal dictionary, if not the physical one.
Now that we’ve done a deep-dive into names, let’s put them into play.
