YOU HAVE BEEN HIT BY THE CHAIN LETTERS TRUCK!

Once you've been hit, you are obligated by the laws of the Internet to subscribe and tell 5 of your closest business friends.............
If you tell 3 ppl about this, ur crush will compliment you on your brilliant brain.
If you tell 26 ppl or more, Katie with the good names herself will name her first born after u, or name your first born.
If you don't pass this on, you will have FOMO for several hours after you close this page and you and your friends will miss out on really funny stories, the lore behind big brand names you love, strong opinions on objectively BAD names, and DIY naming advice.
DO NOT PASS UP THIS OPPORTUNITY.
DIY Naming + Creative Strategies (the ART of it all)
Psychology of Naming (the “why” of it all)
Linguistics & Phonetics (aka mouth sounds that make naming more “sciency”)
“That’s a Choice”
(a sometimes series when I see a name so WILD in the wild that I have to stop all regularly scheduled content to tell you about it)

Personal Stories I Don’t Share on Social Media (usually about old women 65+ hitting on my husband which is unfortunately an every weekend thing)
Conceptual Positioning
(the right way to do a themed brand!)
The *very* popular custom naming GPT

Nobody minds good
Chain Letters










Was it “bathtub gin” or “old women hitting on my husband” that did it for you?
Go ahead, preview the goods:




have we met? hey, I'm
Katie with the good names
My friends call my "KTP."
The "t" has nothing to do with my middle name, and everything to do with how "Katie" shortens to "KT."
I've been answering to my initials since middle school when I became painfully aware of how popular my name was in the 90s.
Which is why now, I help brands avoid the same fate by coming up with ownable, unforgettable, creative names.
Since founding 26&thensome, I've pitched hundreds of names to 60+ clients and not one of them has sounded like everyone else in the room.
I've named brands, bands, babies, and beauty products, including a blow dryer for a stylist who did both Princess Di's hair and the Beatles'.
And that's just my B-list.
