QUESTION:

When considering patronising a shop, do you prefer when it has a name that makes it easy to understand exactly what is offered there, or one that is "creative"?

Thanks in advance.

One would think practicality and creativity could meet well enough. But my own creativity doesn't usually lie in naming sense, so I'm not certain how helpful I could be.

Er... I'm not supposing they can't. Just wondering if there's a preference that seems to sway one way or the other among the public here. Among the Mirrorbound, at least.

[ The other side of this impromptu research will be taking more careful note of the kinds of shop names around. ]

I don't know that I've got much naming sense either...

We are a community of scattered people from different cultures and values. I doubt there's much of a consensus to be found. In the end, you should do what pleases you.

[tryhard]

I know. I hardly need anyone's permission to do that.

I was just curious to see what people think. The fact that we're from so many different circumstances and cultures is helpful, even if it can be hectic.

[scatmaam]

And has it been?

[tryhard]

Well... in this particular instance... kind of? Anyway, I got some good ideas.

So, er, thanks for... responding.
