How to Create Your Own Laptop Names
You might want to choose a more personalized name for your laptop.
After all, laptops, like their owners, come in countless different styles with their own purposes and capabilities.
Keep these tips in mind when brainstorming your laptop’s name.
- What are your favorite things? This could be your favorite pastime, location, music genre, food, etc. Whatever your favorite thing is, it may offer you the perfect inspiration for what to incorporate into your laptop’s name.
- What’s the primary purpose of your laptop? If you use your laptop for gaming 99% of the time, you might want to take inspiration from your favorite game or username to create something like “Highly Hypnotic’s Online Portal.” If your laptop’s intended for business or education, you might use words associated with your specific activities and goals to generate your name, such as “Fashion Finder 2.0” or “Stock Market Specialist.”
- What’s the desired tone? A cutesy laptop name is likely not one you’ll consider if you’re looking for something serious or edgy. Deciding first on the general tone you’re looking for will make it easier to choose a name that works for you.
- Consider acronyms. If you want a short laptop name and one which only you know its true meaning, consider using an acronym. If you want to name it something like “Super Secret Spy Alliance,” you could simply call it SSSA, and no one would be the wiser.
