They sound more like names of emo bands to me than a clothing line.

maybe also think of logos that would go with the names and then post again...it's difficult to imagine how the names work if you don't have logos imo...

but good work so far, keep it up!

the names above sound like your trying too hard..don't force it..don't sit there thinking " man i gotta find a name"..that will create a creativity block..and you'll end up with a bad name..let it find you..observe things abstractly..listen to your friends and family..maybe they'll spark somthing..what are you all about? will you be all about it in 10 years? what music do you like? who do you want your target market to be?

draw random pictures in your sketch book..don't think about it too hard, you'll come up with somthing.

but like the others advised, try that sketchbook thing!
or just do some shirt designs, don't think to much about a logo or something and let the name find you....

thanks brave!
the idea of that name is :
underground applies to the underground or street clothing seen,underground artist in different genres like rock or hip hop and ppl trying to come up from where they are in a social or econimic state (hence underground)
and the academy part comes from my idea of that all these things are knowledge like music , art , creativity in general. so thats the idea behind the name.

call it somthing with the name "Morlock" in it.

Morlocks were the underground ( literally) species in H.G. Wells "Time Machine"..they only come out at night and hide in the shadows of their subteranean dwellings.

i have been thinking about a name for a company for some time now.

And i found that "suck my dick" clothing is a really nice name.

You can use it if you want.

Why post if you are just going to talk shit , even if you were going to say something negative atleast make it count as a form of constructive criticism.If talking shit to ppl online gets you off then to each his own i guess.

I like underground academy as well. But maybe you should put some shirts together and then try to find a common theme.

exactly dude


i hate it when people come in here and ask what their name should be

look at all the popular streetwear names... "Orisue" "10 Deep" "The Hundreds" "Diamond" "Supreme" "3 Sixteen"

they arent "emo band names"...they represent the company. making a list and choosing the best one sometimes works for a band, but for a company, it will never do the job. your name will have to have a backbone to it. something that when someone asks you, "what does it mean?" you can respond with a simple, yet detailed answer. also, your logo will play a HUGE role in it too, and i dont think you could make any decent ones with the list above unless you acronym it.

heres the bottom line advice:

pay attention to what Greedo said, i agree with him. let it come naturally, think of something that plays a big part in your life...an event, or motto that you have remebered since childhood. also, it will help you partner up with someone...you dont have to, but imo, it makes the business easier. your partner will also be able to help you will creativity blocks like the one your having right now.

best wishes and make the right decision.


well said

You should use "Tweek Clothing"........it could mean, tweeking ("tweaking") the conventional fashion style into an individualistic expression of personality.
