ereks mom Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I am about to start a blog, but I need inspiration. Tell me how you came up with the name of your blog, and maybe that will jumpstart me. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mommy2BeautifulGirls Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I didn't. My husband did. :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofkhm Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 My original plan had been to blog our homeschool journey so I named my blog the name of our school. I don't know if I even have one post about school! Most of them are about trips or this year about books and movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fhjmom Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I don't actually blog much but the name of mine is "This is my story, this is my song", which is a line from one of my favorite old hymns. I had actually done an altered hymnal for a scrapbook contest that dealt with my progressive hearing loss by the same title that chronicled the story of my life with different hymns and worship songs to represent different time periods or events in my past. It seemed appropriate to continue the theme in my blog. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Mine is Supratentorial. The tentorium is the membrane that celebrates the cerebellum from the cerebrum. When doctors think that a patient is imagining their symptoms they will say that they think the symptoms are "supratentorial" (above the tentorium, in the cerebrum or thinking part of the brain). It's a way to say that it's "all in their head" without the patient knowing. It's not very nice, but I always thought it was a cool word. It just kind of popped into my head as being a neat word that expressed what I wanted my blog to be (what's in my head) and that fit me personally.

veggiegal Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 By brainstorming with online homeschool friends (on email lists and facebook), and then asking folks widely (again, email lists and facebook) once I'd narrowed it down to the top three. My blog is called Educating Risa, an obvious pun on the movie Educating Rita, and yes, my name really is Risa. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The cerebellum is AWESOME! :lol: My <lame, unupdated> blog name came from a slur from my sister in law. (She called me a knitting, geeking, loser) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandaceC Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 The name of my blog came from my favorite scripture passage!! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farrar Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 I named mine after one of my favorite books - I Capture the Castle by Dodie Smith. The blog is about children's books (including YA, which that book basically is) as well as homeschooling so it tied that in. As well, while the book's title is obviously a play on a chess move, the word "capture" in the title doesn't mean seize, it means to capture like in a sketch, in this case a written one. So I named mine I Capture the Rowhouse, because we don't live in a castle and I'm trying to capture our homeschooling life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChristusG Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Mine is called "Just Another Day In Paradise." It's a take off on the Phil Vassar song by the same name.....here's the lyrics: The kids screaming, phone ringing Dog barking at the mailman bringing That stack of bills - overdue Good morning baby, how are you? Got a half hour, quick shower Take a drink of milk but the milk's gone sour My funny face makes you laugh Twist the top on and I put it back There goes the washing machine Baby, don't kick it. I promise I'll fix it Long about a million other things Well, it's ok. It's so nice It's just another day in paradise Well, there's no place that I'd rather be Well, it's two hearts And one dream I wouldn't trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise Friday, you're late Guess we'll never make our dinner date At the restaurant you start to cry Baby, we'll just improvise Well, plan B looks like Dominoes' pizza in the candle light Then we'll tippy toe to our room Make a little love that's overdue But somebody had a bad dream Mama and daddy Can me and my teddy Come in to sleep in between? Yeah it's ok. It's so nice. It's just another day in paradise. Well, there's no place that I'd rather be Well, it's two hearts And one dream I wouldn't trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise Well, it's ok. It's so nice. It's just another day in paradise. Well, there's no place that I'd rather be Two hearts And one dream I wouldn't trade it for anything And I ask the Lord every night For just another day in paradise For just another day in paradise Well, it's the kids screaming. The phone ringing Just another day Well, it's Friday. You're late Oh yeah, it's just another day in paradise Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris in VA Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 My "old" one (I don't update really anymore), Twilight and Sunrise, came from the idea that I wanted to blog about the good and the not so good in our lives. My son was then in a residential treatment center called Sunrise. Here's an explanation. THis was written a long time ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pamela H in Texas Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 (edited) I stink at names. My current blog's name is "Mama'ing Again: Starting this parenting thing all over again!" (In March, we were licensed for fostering. We currently have five children ages 5mo to 5yrs). One blog, I was thinking of naming "The Flower Pot" as in "blooming idiot." Some people didn't think that was very positive. LOL Edited July 6, 2011 by 2J5M9K Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
