A name.

I want to rename my blog. I'm tired of "Unix Gal". Hell, I might even get my own domain, but I really like techieswithcats.com.

Any suggestions?

[moved back to the top of the page so I could collect more suggestions]

lislislis.com

okay, maybe not.

Moxie with cats.

Annessa said:

DORK, don't you mess with my girlfriend.

How about Mistressofthewebiverse.com?

No??

kristine said:

I've had a hard time coming up with names for my site, but if you think of some ideas and want feedback, I'm glad to help!!

Carla said:

I'm having this dilema too. What do you like? Besides cats. Are colors ok in a name? How about different words grouped together?

Samuel said:

My advice is to find some really obscure word that fits. That's what I did at least.

Latin is always a good choice (that's what Erica did).

Lisa said:

Besides cats, I like books, mujsic, movies, programming, learning new things, fun people, laughing, flirting. Colors are cool. Different words grouped together are also cool. "Lis" or "Lisa" are both fine. I even tried "Lisa Karen" but that was taken (not that it's a descriptive name).

Paul said:

I would keep the techieswithcats.com extension, but I would change the UnixGal. How about WinXPChick? ;-)

Lisa said:

Paul: You sit on the until you can behave.

Worst case, I could just do lis.techieswithcats.com or lisa.techieswithcats.com

Gwyn Cole said:

Hmm... "Matrix Gal" or "Bond Gal" or "Lisa's Notes" ... .. .

Nicole said:

I've always been fond of Snufflufogus.com, but it's probably not what you're looking for! *grin*

Clara said:

BatLisa.com!

Melissa said:

Interestingly enough lisalisabobisa.com is not taken! wink

Neither is sheisschneider.com or perikatyagrishka.com or imatechie.com or meowwoofmeow.com or codechick.com or ubergeekette.com.

Any of those sound the least bit appealing? (They're all available, according to GeekTools.) It's always hard to help with something like this, because a domain name seems so personal for some reason.

Let me know if you want me to toss out any other random off-the-wall ideas. wink

Lisa said:

M: That's a good batch of names! Certainly better than silly ol' Clara's suggestion. wink

I'm getting a lot of good suggestions. This is fun. grin

Donna said:

Well, you might know my feelings on this, because I blogged about it recently after doing some site checking for Globe of Blogs. No "musings", "rambles", nothing like that. Been done. Avoid the words "daily" "blog" and "site." Of course it's daily - it's a blog! Whoo, I'm getting revved up all over again.
I used magnetic poetry to come up with Live in the Delirious Cool - I had that phrase in my head long before I had a site. What about something with "out loud" in it? I think "writing out loud" is a great name, but it's taken, unfortunately.

Carla said:

Ooh, I like ubergeekette.com. Still thinking here.

Buzz said:

I guess http://iluvbuzz@techieswithcats is out of the question?

Shadowedken said:

... Umm... My brain is all mushy today. I can't think of anything good!

Nancy said:

Wow, Melissa had some great suggestions!!! Good luck, it's hard to choose just one ;-)

robyn said:

lisalisatheoneiadore.com is available...

Angel said:

Personally, I like QueenLisa.com! ;-)

tanya said:

perismom? geniusgrrl?

i liked meowwoofmeow, personally.

Rob said:

imatechie.com seems cool

Jason Stare said:

Lisa's Lounge

www.lisaslounge.com or
www.lisas-lounge.com

Paul said:

(*sings*) MissLisa.com if your nasty :-)

cindy said:

I actually came up with mine by running my name through an anagram generator. So appropriate that I came up with something with 'candy' in the name. Try it with your name, if nothing you may get a good laugh at some of the names. Here is the one I used:

jay said:

my.dog.peri.is.the.cutest.thing.ever.com

Clara said:

lisa.goddessofallthingsgeek.com

Hey Lisa said:

I loved meowwoofmeow.com, and I think Lisa's Lounge would be cool too. I've been having a tough time with that one myself. I've thought and thought about getting a cool domain name but have yet to do it.

kevin said:

lisafantastica.com, felinemaximus.com, unixschmoonix.com, kittysmak.com, grepcats.com, lndashs.com

halla said:

um, you seem to like colorado so maybe something rocky, or mountain, or summit?

Hey Lisa said:

It hit me on the way to work this morning: addadog.techieswithcats.com

Solonor said:

Ooh, ooh!! How about Lisa's Ink Well? Gah. No. Way too dorky.
"The Mighty Geek"? No, been done.
Um, GeekGrrl? Nah. Too lame.
"All Things Bright and Bloggable"? Grrr. I suck at this.

Paul said:

how about something simpler like Jasra's Den

Melissa said:

Solonor, I suppose you'd be the most knowledgeable person on all things "lame".

Lisa, here's my next batch of brilliance (LOL) :

MTChick.com
LoggedByLisa.com
ColoradoLisa.com
LisaLately.com
LifeofLisa.com
