I’m not exactly a branding genius myself, but so many nostr apps have such terrible names that I just want to say “I see a rebrand in your future”

Not intending this towards any one app specifically.

I feel insulted

😂 hey… you have highlighter dot freakin COM! I think you did aright 🤣

Nutsack.me in shambles 😩

😂

*str

Will you be a cat forever?

Who’s asking?

A bunny? Or simply just a ghost

Not even snort?

Not calling anyone out specifically 😆

LOL. That was my first reaction when I saw that name.

You should launch Brandstr.

Google Chromehttps

Mozillawww Firefox

Of course. Who would name a client freerse. Sounds like something else 🤭

On the other hand, Lumina rocks sounds awesome

Freedom + Universe =Freerse 😉🤙

How about 'Unidom'?

We're not naming any names but what's the worst one?

You don't like to live dangerously

TOP 10

I’m doing it out of love for the devs because I want them to succeed with proper names 😅😅

nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft multiple appearance on the list is largely due to the law of large numbers - once you create 420 apps there’s some bound to have names on the list below 😂

Ananostr

Freerse

Nmostr

Nostril

Nostur

Nostrmo

Onlyfaaaaaaaans

Wherostr

Snort

Slidestr

Pinstr

Memestr

Nosta

Wikistr

Yakihonne

Listr

Swarmstr

Npub.pro

Zappdit

0xchat

Nostree

Lowent

Flockstr

Yakihonne has a unique and memorable name with strong etymology

It’s a mouthful and not very relatable to what it does

You literally have to translate it for people

Is this your list of worst names on nostr???

#YESTR

Whaaaat.... you don't like Nosta? That cuts deep... 😭😉

🤣 named them with love ❤️

My basic criteria for good names:

- easy to say

- easy to spell

- is somehow related to what it does / provide

- memorable

- short

Nosta fails spelling; relevance and memorable.

But like you said, fine for early stage

I think these names are fine for early phases of projects. Rethinking name & brand is a good exercise if/when they grow and "professionalize" a bit.

It’s hard to come up with good names, won’t argue that. I understand why people would rather just build and not spend too much time on naming 👍

Will anyone believe like three years back that you can Zap across all these applications .. it is crazy ..

Want to comment on the best ones? 😆😉💜

Damus

Iris

Amethyst

Primal

Highlighter

Hivetalk

Zapstream

Zap store

Openvibe

Gossip

Satellite

Alby

Lume

zap.store and zap.stream both have "Zapstr" in their pronounciation 👀

love lume, iris and damus the most

Yes I’d say they are an exception because zap stream does a good job of indicating what happens in the app and zap store once they add zaps 😂

Nostrudel -- what is in the name :-)
