This week, NameStormers CEO Mike Carr and Director of Ops Ashley Elliott discuss the evolving role of AI in naming, highlighting a project journey for an outdoor lifestyle brand's bug repellent. While AI generated initial ideas, human creativity was crucial in refining names due to trademark concerns. The process involved presenting names with visual context, client feedback, and adjustments based on packaging and trademark needs. The key takeaway is that the best names market an experience, not just functionality. The hosts also recommend The Power of Instinct by Leslie Zane, emphasizing the importance of marketing higher-order benefits.
