New business, I am looking for a good name for a "cake and sweets" bakery. Any suggestions?

Good for you!! Great to see others come over to the self employed side. I have named my companies by just listing out every word that goes with that business. And I mean every last word. Then try to pick and choose a mix of words to form a name and then see if the dot com is available. Once I have a list of say 10 names that I like and have dot coms available. I send out a mass email to all my friends to give me their opinions of the names and to rank them. I then compile that info and normally end up with a name. Stay away from odd spelling of words or dashes as its hard to communicate those when speaking and talking about your web site. dot com is best to have at all expense....otherwise dot net, anything else will be ignored for the most part. I use do automotive paint cosmetics and named myself BrushlessColors. Cause I don't use brushes and I play with colors. Another company is a headlight restoration company. Renewed Sight. Cause I was re-newing the sight of the headlights. Another was MarkaColor for a touch up paint pen. As you were marking the color on the spots. and last a business that does web sites for dealerships, DealerPages. I was doing web Pages for dealerships. Make it catchy but stupid simple at the same time. Something like " the Confectionery " is a nice name, says what you do...but how many people would actually understand it let alone spell it properly. make it simple...like sugarcookie or sweettreats if you want volume of business like a mass produced cookie company. make it personal if you want to be considered the high line of cookies and cakes. like Angie's....the store of sweets.

"Sweet Things" "The Sweetest Thing" "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice" "Treat Yourself" "Decadent Pleasures"

Sweet tooth Sweet nothings Delicate delights Cake sensations Have your cake and Eat it

Emphasise the handmade angle - something like Custom Cuisine Personal Pastries Bespoke Bodega Handmade Hampers ... or go for the value aspect - something like Cheap Tarts (!) ...couldn't resist that one... Budget Bakery Target the market you're aiming for, keep it short and snappy and memorable. Alliteration always helps too. Good luck!
