Default Help with name for online shop...

I need your help in finding a name for an online shop that I want to start. I know some would think it would be on the top of my head if it were meant to be, I just need a little help pulling it out. To give an idea on what I do, I create altered art with tags, wood pieces, dominoes, I use vintage images, distress techniques, scripture, sayings, etc.
I have a name that I really like but it's the name of my blog where I make and give tags away and I don't know if I could use it for that and a shop where I sell things, could I? The name is The Glittered Lily.

Do you have any name ideas? Thanks for your help.

The most important thing is to name your shop something that people will remember. Or if they don't remember the name they can Google it by product.

Vintage Lily would be good. If people Google "Vintage" anything your name will come up

Just a thought... you should google the name you want and other names close to it. See if anyone already has a store with the same or similar name. (and also what their content is.... there may be some web businesses that you do not want your business name associated with)

Also - think about the domain name you want - is it taken? Can people spell it? Does it look weird all together?

For instance - I always thought the "I scrap" site was maybe not the best choice. The first time I read iscrap.com, I read it as "is crap" instead of "I scrap". Maybe just me... :rolleyes:

Anyway, just a few thoughts.....

I think it would be good for branding and identity purposes to stick with the name you already have for your blog. So it is easy to see that you are the same entity. You might add the word boutique or shoppe to the store name.
