How to Choose a Name for Your Bakery

Here are some key factors to consider when choosing your bakery name.

1. Check Name Availability

When you come up with name options, you’ll want to make sure they’re available and stand out from competitor names. You don’t want to copy competitors by choosing a name similar to theirs.

You’ll need to do a business name search on your state’s Secretary of State’s website to verify the name is available. The search will also show similar names, so you can ensure your name is unique in your state.

Also, check the United States Patent and Trademark Office’s website to double-check that the name is not trademarked.

2. Check Your State’s Business Name Regulations

Each state has rules regarding business names, often restricting words such as “bank” or “university.” Some states have stricter rules than others; for example, Michigan has a long list of prohibited words. You should be able to find your state’s rules on the Secretary of State’s website.

Upon creating an LLC, it’s mandatory to have either “LLC,” “limited liability company,” or “limited liability” as part of its official name. This ensures clarity and compliance with naming conventions for such entities.

3. Choose a Name with Relevance

Your name should be relevant to your baked goods. It should also reflect your business mission and your brand’s identity. Often, if you write down a description of your brand identity, you’ll come up with words that have the potential to be used in your business name.

4. Keep It Simple

Your name should be easy to say so that it’s more memorable. It should also be easy to spell so people can search for your bakery online. 

5. Short and Unique

Short, unique, and catchy names tend to stand out. Think Google, which is so catchy and unique that it’s become a verb!

6. Get Feedback

Family and friends can give you an outside perspective on your bakery name. They can offer suggestions and give you feedback on the names you have in mind.

7. Allow for Expansion

As your business grows, you may expand into new product or service lines, so you don’t want a business name that’s too narrow.  For example, go with “Jim’s Bakery” instead of “Jim’s Cookies.” The name should also have timeless appeal. Don’t try to capture a trend — trends continuously change, and you don’t want a name that could become outdated. 

8. .com is Best

You’ll want to check to ensure the .com domain name is available for your chosen name. Domain names ending in .com generally reflect more credibility than alternatives. Use our Domain Name Search Tool to find an available website name and get the perfect domain name for your business.

9. Use Keywords to Boost SEO

You’ll want your name to be SEO-friendly to boost your organic search engine rankings. Use keywords that potential customers might search for (e.g., “bakery,” “baked goods,” “pastries,” or “pies”). 

10. How Does it Sound?

Say the name out loud to see how it rolls off the tongue. Is it pleasant? Does it evoke positivity? You’d be surprised how different a name sounds when you say it compared to when you think it. 

11. Appeal to Emotions

Names that evoke positive emotions can create a connection with your target customers. You want them to feel good about your bakery. 

Common Questions

Why is choosing the right bakery name important for my business?

Selecting the right bakery name is essential because it’s customers’ first impression of your brand. A memorable and relevant name can help attract customers, convey your bakery’s theme or specialty, and enhance brand recall.

What factors should I consider when brainstorming bakery name ideas?

When considering bakery name ideas, think about your target audience, the type of baked goods you’ll offer, your bakery’s theme or atmosphere, cultural or local references, and any words or phrases you want to avoid.

How can I ensure my chosen bakery name isn’t already taken?

Before finalizing any bakery name idea, it’s crucial to conduct a thorough online search, check domain availability for a website, and consult the local business registry or appropriate trademark office to ensure the name isn’t already in use or trademarked.

Do bakery names with certain keywords perform better than others?

Bakery names that include keywords indicating the type of baked goods (like “bread,” “cake,” or “pastry”) or that evoke emotions (like “homemade” or “artisanal”) can sometimes resonate better with customers. Still, it also depends on your target audience and market positioning.

Should my bakery name ideas reflect a specific theme or niche?

Incorporating a specific theme or niche, such as vegan baking or French pastries, into your bakery name can help attract a particular customer base and set clear expectations about your offerings.
