Shop name

[clevermanka]

I can't think of a good name for my Etsy bloomers shop. I was hoping to use clevermanka, but it's already taken (wtf). So are fancypants, sassypants, smartypants, and prettypants. I can think of nothing that works with the word "bloomers" that doesn't sound too cutesy. I'm trying to remain gender neutral--no "bloomergirl" or the like.

Suggestions?



Oh for godssake. Even "knickerknacks" is taken. At this point, I think Etsy is just fucking with me.

It's not taken!

PantsOMine is pretty brilliant.

Edit--really leaning toward that one. D'you think pantsohmine or pantsomine? I kind of like the H in there breaking up the word visually, but do you think it makes the pun harder to see?

I like the visual, but not so much the grammar.

If you assume an apostrophe, "Pants O'Mine" is perfectly grammatical English (as transcribed --- most people don't actually pronounced the [f] in "of" in unstressed positions).

[poincaraux.livejournal.com]

Right. Visually, I like something between the O and the M (your apostrophe idea would be perfect, but I doubt Etsy allows it).

Are you able to have apostrophes? How about Pantso'mine? I think you're not allowed to have capitals in the shop name...

pantsomine
pantsohmine
pantso'mine.
pants_o_mine

Personally, I think the apostrophe (if you can have one) makes the pun the clearest.

ARGH. No special characters allowed.

*bangs head*

Does the pun get too obscured in PantsOfMine? Probably so.

etc. I think it's perfect either way~
