I'd go with Butterstickinc but use BTRSTK for promotional tee's, a second domain for your website, etc...
Our brand name is Sole Individual but we use SNDVL for the uses above.
Good luck on your brand homie!

Everyone wants to be a trendsetter with a movement, but no one wants to start a trend.
The premise of a good and successful, but even more sustainable business -- an idea that hasn't already been done.
To fill a need.
Half of these brands on this thread?
Half-baked. If you wanna do it for just the money that's cool. But don't expect any longevity as long as you look EXACTLY other brands -- the only thing separating you then, price.
I can't express how annoyed I am, EVERYTIME I read a brand's about.
"BLAH, we want to start a movement" (well what is it
"Our movement is..." (enter FIFTY different, UNRELATED subjects, in an attempt to capture A HUGE MARKET THAT YOU ULTIMATELY CANNOT SERVE WELL, imagine if McDonalds tried to serve gourmet cuisine alongside a Mcwhopper. Exactly).
Stop calling your shit a lifestyle, if your answer to WHAT IS YOUR LIFESTYLE is, any form or variation of this.
That's not a lifestyle.

brands are following trends and doing what others do, which isn't part of being successful. yea you'll probably sell out in clothes, but really you're just selling out. cause what's a brand with no originality?

-Conclusion
Sure, You can call my brand whatever you want. lol
And no you don't need to describe yourself. Your work exceeds you g-whiz. I am sure the world sees what you are capable of too
Good luck with your rebranding. I am sure the concepts & products would be sooo mind blowing and you'll totally dominate here ( or anywhere ) comparing to everyone else's shitty unthoughtful brands
Think you should create a new thread on brands you're hating on since you are so literate at it. hahaha
Over & out

THE NAME OF THE GAME / www.lightworksclothing.com
I've gotten advice from many different successful brand owners, and they tell me many things i should avoid, and do. but one thing that they all say, that they never leave out, is ALWAYS be original. Did Huf become the brand they are today from stealing the box logo from supreme? Did stussy become the brand they are today from stealing the color schemes from obey? I haven't seen a brand who became successful from ripping off others ideas, so what's makes you think stealing other brands ideas will make YOU successful. These brands became successful for being unique and different, stussy for bringing a surfer/skater apparel, supreme for bringing in patterned hats, obey for bringing in street art and protest related issues. And especially johnny cupcakes, they sold their merchandise from suitcases, during shows. i mean how original is that. Originality is key in having a brand. Johnny once said, "If you're original, you'll never have competition."

@aldenteco
really?
after all that, and then the lull of non-talking?
you decide to start posting again?
and it's equally ignorant.
this all started because you can't take constructive criticism.
Lol the funny thing about that hippy kid, is he's saying something to the notion
I can't believe anyone in this thread has the nerve to call me immature and question my morals.
"brands are following trends and doing what others do, which isn't part of being successful. yea you'll probably sell out in clothes, but really you're just selling out. cause what's a brand with no originality?"
I pray you listen to this "kid".
I pray you step up your game, and you as well @ricosway.
When I drop my shit, I hope you're both willing to admit -- I'm Kobe and you're Linsanity, that shit don't last.
Consider Benny Gold's Valencia Collection for one. Rather than throw up a bland rendition of a Navajo print shirt, Benny cleverly plays off the pattern and works it into his iconic paper airplane logo. That twist is what correlates to successful design, and in turn, a successful brand.

@ricosway:
You have all these followers.
I'd be curious to know what percentage actually engages with you, and your comments.
From your twitter, it appears that about 1:8 is a mention from a customer, and the others are posts by you.
Yeah dude, success.
Same thing as your tumblr.
Sure, you have people "following" your "movement".
My success, it'll be dictated by the quality of what I put out, and the people who support it.
Quality over quantity.
Oh and by the way, creativity or inspiration is not completely ripping off something.
The raptors logo with "SNDVL", really? Like really?
A bulls logo with a caption? REALLY.
Someone worked hard on both those logos and you've essentially copy and pasted them, yeah dude, worked real hard.
STEP YOUR GAME UP.

Biased. If you're gonna be critical, be critical.
Benny's navajo pattern is the same as everyone else's basically.
His brand was already hyped and already successful.
Like karakter said awhile back, some people like him (and there are a lot out there), will buy ________ just because they're ____________.
Benny's valencia collection was by far his most disappointing (the only anything from I didn't buy anything from since I found out about B.G.).
AND NOT ONLY, did he sell out from making a whole collection based on this trend, HE SOLD OUT BY MAKING A REPRINT.
It disgusts me a bit that out of all of his designs, the one collection he reprints for is the most far from what his brand is.
Yes, it's essentially a brand about youth and design.
But what got me was B.G. even though they used the staple graphic t-shirt, etc. like everyone else -- it was always based around Benny's unique designs. For instance the "Works for Jerks" tee, how classic is that? Totally fits with his mantra.
This? Mainstreaming sellout goodness at it's best.
