Hello!

Please help me narrow down some names for my new honey subscription business. It's providing a tube of raw natural honey from different small apiaries and back yard beekeepers through the post monthly.

I would like something modern and not too twee. We're based in Scotland but I'm hoping it'll be a national company.

So far we have

Braw Honey (emphasis on the raw... but I'm not sure if Braw means something different in the rest of the UK? Or Hinnie, which is an old Scottish word for honey (maybe too obscure?) Rare honey, or Real honey. Ugly honey (as a pushback to the fake homogenized honey in supermarkets) Letterbox honey (too literal) Honey I'm home (twee)

I like words that mean 'different' like offbeat honey, but seems to be trying too hard to be cool....

Or words that highlight health or wellness? Live honey?

This is so hard!

I don’t really get For Love Nor Honey. It doesn’t seem to convey anything beyond sounding a bit negative.

What about:

We Are The Bees,
with the tagline - well sourced honey

Really like that. A positive name, relating to honey (bees ), and implying a good brand (bees knees).

BeeKeeping · 12/11/2024 14:23

Thanks @redtrain123 that's great feedback!

I'm hoping it alludes to the business model, where we are being the bees, finding good sources of honey to bring back to a central hive!

And it's not sexy!

I prefer "We The Bees", as in "We The People". It's tighter.

Free People (the clothing brand) have a "We The Free" subbrand.

Yes that is better - thanks @thesunisastar

We the bees is good

Deliverooze would be great IMHO but.... you'd definitely get stung legally.

Just call the company Melliferous - it's very hard to capture everything you would like to.

Fwiw, I really like Honest Honey. To me it’s simple, sums up the product, lends itself to a lovely simple brand style too.

Hamiltonfan · 30/06/2025 19:27

I need to know - what did you call it in the end??!

camellia15 · 08/07/2025 23:48

BRaw Honey
Honey Bunch
Honest Honey
Letterbox Honey

I’ve just realised that folk have still been posting suggestions- so lovely of you all!

We’ve gone for…
We The Bees!

can’t remember who first suggested it but if you come forward I will send you some free honey!

launching this spring- turns out having 2 kids and 2 jobs slows down starting a business somewhat.

you are all amazing- thank you so much!

I think that’s a great name. Good luck with it.
