Please help me find the perfect FOOD BLOG name!
Hi everyone! I am a 21 year old Dietetics/Nutrition student soon-to-be-Registered Dietician. I'm interested in starting a food blog that will include my daily eats, new recipes, product reviews etc. I want the site to be a positive place where people can share their passion for health, food and fitness. Any suggestions? Thanks!

I have no problem with people asking for ideas to name a blog. I think these forums can be a great resource, especially if you don't take things too personally.
I'm willing to help, but I need a few more ideas for a starting point.
The details you've given us can really go anywhere.
What ideas have you come up with (or possibly thrown out)?

@renzata lol I was just thinking the same thing! I agree with engmcmuffin. Many of us don't mind helping out. But, what are you're own thoughts. I mean I personally can't contribute without knowing what you've already thought of.

oh no not this again....

haha...yes, not this again--but i'm sure you won't get the brush off. I was the one who caused the initial hub bub (using different sign on now)--came up with my own thoughts and took the suggestions of others here and went in a different direction and happily blogging away. I agree, throw out some some things and the people in this forum are very friendly and helpful. There's already a food blog by a dietician name "nutriontokitchen" Use the words you describe.. some play on nutrition or heath or passion.... eat for health or nutrition from the dietician, or diet-riot ...

Yes, I can see where this can be a controversial thing to do, but I appreciate all of you who are willing to help out. I want the name to short and sweet, something that promotes health and wellness, but is also fun, catchy and easy to remember. Something like :
EatWellBeWell.com
HealthFoodie.com
EatingforHealth.com
Thanks!

I had a very beloved art teacher once tell me that you never leave a work of art unnamed, its like not naming your baby... if you have the need to create something and you want other people to name it for you, it just seems like maybe this isn't your baby.

@kac123, please follow up with the blog once ready!
I'm a fan of nutrition and eating; can't go wrong bloggin with y0ou!

@kac123 - I like "eatwellbewell.com" has a nice ring to it, so to speak.
Or "foodfunhealth.com" - still like yours better.
@ravenouscouple: Really loved what you decided to go with on your blog. Looks wonderful - I'll keep on reading!

@ kac123: i'm sure you already know this, but make sure you do a google search of those names first and there's a great series of posts on how to start a blog by Wanderingchopsticks

Since you're an RD, I would definitely use something to flag a credential most of us don't have! Why not: 'Ask-the-Dietitian' or 'The RD is IN' or 'Dietitians eat too' or something like that.

Ooh great ideas, thanks everyone!
