Ever since I was a child, I’ve had a deep fascination with names and their meanings. I still vividly remember the day my parents brought home our family’s first dog – a rambunctious golden retriever puppy. After hours of brainstorming, we landed on the perfect name: Rufus, meaning “red-haired” which matched his golden fur. From that point on, I was hooked on the subtle art of naming.

Over the years, I’ve named everything from pets to D&D characters to fantasy sports teams. I even helped a few friends pick baby names! Along the way, I developed a systematic approach to naming, taking into account qualities like meaning, flow, and cultural context.

In 2024, I turned my passion into a profession by launching Nameisle. Here, I offer naming consultations and deploy my time-tested methods to help people name just about anything – pets, babies, businesses, you name it. I also share naming insights through the blog.

Whether you need to name a new kitten or rebrand your entire company, Nameisle has you covered. I’m committed to finding the perfect moniker for your newest addition. Let the naming adventure begin!
