Naming Your Blog
Crushingcinders: What’s in a name? How do you choose a name for your blog? I was looking for something unique, but relevant.
The name Crushingcinders originated one day a few years ago when 
I needed a password for an email account. At the time I was frustrated with the world’s fixation on the perfect woman and wished I could flatten any ‘Cinderella’ princess! The words popped into my head and made me laugh.
The name stuck with me and feels comfortable and as I love complex ‘messed-up’ characters in books I thought it would be the perfect name for my blog.
How did you come up with your blog’s name?
This post was inspired by a post on Choosing the Perfect Blog Name by Cheri Lucas Rowlands. Thank you for the prompt Cheri!

I liked your blog name when I first saw it but didn’t think where it came from. I feel more linked to your blog now I know the story behind the name and what it means. Love it. Thanks for linking to #Findtribe

Great story! 😀 Mine (Babi a Fi) is really boring – it’s just ‘Baby and Me’ in Welsh. #findyourtribe
Laura @ Dot Makes 4
I love the name!
I chose ‘Dot Makes 4’ because Dorothy is the 4th member of our family 🙂

That’s so clever! It reminds me of ‘Mrs D plus 3’, a blog I love with a similar name.

Thank you! I like yours too and it fits your blog. I often wonder if mine is too obscure…

That’s awesome! Love the name! My blog is just called The Story Goes and I kinda just randomly came up with it when I was trying to rename my blog because I wanted it to at least vaguely have something to do with books and writing, and I think The Story Goes.. fits that pretty well!

‘The Story Goes..’ is a perfect name for a book blog. Love it!
Thank you for visiting. 🙂
