Tips for choosing a name
Keep it to 2-4 words — shorter names are easier to remember, share, and search for.
Say it out loud. Does it flow? Can people spell it after hearing it once?
Test with your target audience. Will beginners feel welcome? Will experienced practitioners respect it?
Check availability on Instagram, Facebook, and as a domain — consistency matters for discovery.
Avoid years or dates — your group will grow beyond the timeframe.
Consider your waitlist management needs in the name. Silent vs. guided is worth clarifying upfront.
A name that evokes the *feeling* (stillness, clarity, presence) often outlasts one that just describes the activity.
If you run multiple event types, use subcategories or tags in your RSVP tool rather than generic names that confuse newcomers.
