Welcome to Knerd’s Naming Contest!

For a while now, I’ve planned on opening a new blog. The only problem is that I don’t know what to call it! Until I come up with a title, I can’t get a domain, and I can’t start writing. So that’s where I need your help:

I want you to help me name my blog. I need something short, catchy, and descriptive. I’ve got a few ideas right now, but none are any fun. I’m just too impatient to sit around and wait for inspiration to strike!



Important Things to Know

You can’t create a title without first knowing what the blog’s about, right?
  • Here’s the simple version: My blog will be a virtual tour of the United States.
    The general idea behind it is that I will be “walking” across the country and writing out detailed travel guides of each place I “visit.”

  • Think of it as a combination tourist book and exercise diary.
  • Keep in mind that I will be writing this under my real name (Kerry), not my username. If your title includes “Knerd,” then I can’t use it.
  • I'll attempt to make my blog humorous, but I make no promises. My audience will most likely be people interested in travel, local history, landmarks, weird facts, and fitness.

Think you’ve got an idea? Great!
Submit as many suggestions as you want, using this simple form. There is no limit to the number of submissions you can post.

Prizes!

If you submit a suggestion, I can guarantee that you’ll win something.
  • The better I like it, the larger your prize will be!
Even if it is completely awful and makes no sense and I want to kill it with a spoon, you’ll get at least 5g. But if it makes me laugh and smile and I end up using it for my blog, you'll definitely walk away with a wad of gold and/or items!

So if I were you, I’d think hard about my suggestions!




Deadline

I am feeling impatient and anxious to begin my blog, so this contest will not last very long. I can guarantee that it will be open for three more days. If the contest stays open, that means that I have not decided on a name yet.

This contest will end once my blog is named.

The tentative closing date is currently: Thursday, June 10th.

@ "Citizen Kerry's Democratic Diet"

I don't know if it quite fits, but I love it anyway!
