7 Easy Steps to Come Up With a Unique Name for Your Gym
With the growing fitness industry, there is no shortage of competition in the market. The new contenders might find it hard to compete with already established fitness centers. There might be one or two gyms in your area or nearby and you want your fitness center to stand out. Many factors come into play in making a gym stand out. From a unique take to proper planning and concrete business plans, it all counts but one factor that many people ignore is the importance of a unique and strong gym name. Your gym’s name is going to be the first introduction to your gym. Your customers are going to encounter it before they even visit your gym so it’s going to be the first impression. First impressions are very important in setting the right expectations and perceptions. A name tells the onlookers and customers about the decorum of your gym and what kind of fitness plans you have to offer.
The name of your gym will play a very crucial role in cementing its position in the business. It might sound like a simple gig but trust me, it’s no walk in the park. Finding the right name for your gym is crucial to attract people and let them know that what you are offering is different and the best in its way.
How To Name Your Gym
Looking for a killer and unique name for your gym and got no luck? Then worry not because we’ve got you. Listed below are some tips and hacks to help you determine a fitting name for your gym.
What Is Your Forte?
The basis of establishing any business is having a clear image of your goals and aims. Review your business plans thoroughly and be clear of what you want to bring to the market. What is a particular area that you will be focusing on? Factors like these can also incorporate into your title. Is it a gym that focuses on manual workouts? Or a gym that focuses on manual workouts along with equipment workouts? Is it a fitness center that focuses more on dance workouts? Or Tai-Chi, Taekwondo or Krav Maga?
Review all these potential points and decide on what will be the niche of your gym. Once you’ve decided on this, you can include these names in the title of your gym name. “Tai-Chi Club”, and “Zumba Studio” are fitting for a specific forte.
The Name Should Be Creative
Catchy and creative names do half of the work in attracting people. A name plays a huge part in establishing a business and ensures that people will remember your gym. Forgettable and bland names won’t do you any good, settle on a striking name. There are several ways to come up with a catchy name for your gym.
You can list down adjectives that you associate with the idea of your gym. Make a list of these words and combine two words that you think will go together. For example, if you’re aiming at opening a gym specifically for ladies, “Miss” and “Fit” when paired up together have a good ring to them. Get experimental with the adjectives and come up with catchy names.
Try Alliterations
Alliterative names are creative and easy to remember. Alliteration is a sound device where two or more words start with the same sound. “Fit Factory” and “Athletic Arena” are good examples of alliterative names.
Is The Name Simple And Easy To Pronounce?
Keep in mind your name should be easy to pronounce and spell while staying catchy. Difficult to pronounce names are easily forgettable. You want people visiting your gym referencing it to other people as well. How will they do it if they cannot remember the name? Keep the name simple and short, most preferably to two syllables.
The Name Should Be Motivating
Fitness requires a whole lot of motivation and energy. Opt for a name for your gym that motivates the visitors and customers. For this purpose, you can use words that show the result they can achieve from your gym. Words like “fit”, “ripped” and “athletic” are fitting for this. If not in the name, you can include these words in the slogan of your gym to motivate them.
Be Well Informed Of Your Competitors
After you’ve passed the initial process of shortlisting possible names for your gym, check-in with the contenders to see if they have a name that is similar to yours in any sense. This caution is necessary because carelessness in this matter can land you in a legal scuffle later on. All the hustle and bustle of the court is tiring and nobody wants to experience it. So, remember to check your competitors before finalizing the name.
Examine The Availability Of The Name
This step is the one you should never ignore. Check if your name is web-friendly or not and if there is a domain name available for it. “.com” domain name is more preferable and convenient in comparison to other domain names. This one small but necessary step should not be ignored especially in this age of internet progression.
Secondly, check if the gym name is appropriate to use across all social media forums. Potential customers will be engaging with your gym online first to review your fitness plans and to check reviews so social media presence and management should not be ignored. Keep in mind the web availability of your gym name.
Test The Names
It is important to take opinions from friends and family. Share the names with them and see if they can pronounce them and remember them easily. You need to consider it with your employees especially. They will be working with you and you need to take them into concern.
The Takeaway
A name for any business plays an essential role in establishing it whether it’s a gym, boutique, salon, or any other business. This factor should not be taken lightly as it can make or break the business. To attract the target audience choose wisely. Good luck!
