Love to run, go to the gym, workout, eat well, live healthy and want to start a blog to share your passion with other fitness fanatics? Well, the first thing you need to do is think of a good catchy name to help your new site attract and retain readers.
Until you try it, you may not realise how hard it is to come up with a creative blog name that sounds cool and unique. Most of the obvious options you can think of are probably already in use by another blogger who had the same idea, or the domain may not be available to be registered. The whole process can be extremely frustrating. Chances are, you’ve tried your luck and not found anything you like.
Since you’re reading this, it would seem you’ve taken a step in the right direction by doing a bit of research rather than continuing to stress yourself out.
What you need is a bit of inspiration that’s fuelled by lots of naming ideas, and the best way to get this is to browse through a list of creatively named blogs to examine how they come up with meaningfully memorable names.

As you can see, there are two main branding strategies – focus the name around your blog’s content or some aspect about yourself as the blogger.
After making this initial decision, find something that’s truly unique about you or your interests to distinguish your blog from all the others on the Web.
Ideally, you want to have an unusually interesting name that makes people take notice of it and want to take a look at what you’ve got to offer.
