We are opening up a snow cone stand this summer and we need a unique name. The family likes the color purple but we cannot find anything to go with it. My husband likes the "Purple Glacier". I don't think it is catchy. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated and hope to see you guys this summer. Thanks. If you have any other suggestions without the word purple, I am open to suggestions....... Thanks

What can I do next?

So What Happened?

Wow thanks for all the responses. You all have so many good ideas, hard to choose one. We are going to have a family meeting and discuss which ones are our favorites. We are opening it up late March or early April in the Walmart parking lot on N. Beach and N. Tarrant Pkwy in Keller/Ft Worth. Thank again for all your help and if you come with any more keeping them coming and remember you can come up with a name without the word purple. K.

I think maybe with a snow cone stand it will be obvious what you're selling, so what about going with just a fun, silly name that's fun to say and catchy? Like, say, the Purple Turtle, or the Purple Parrot, or the Purple Monkey. (Not sure why I'm using all animals, they're just fun to say I guess) Then you could build on the theme by naming all your flavors with their color and then a silly name. Like, a strawberry could be a Pink Ladybug or Pink Flamingo, and lime could be a Green Lizard, and so forth.....I think you could really have fun and you'll really attract kids with it, which will attract the adults who will buy them to keep their kids from whining.

Good luck with it - and let me know how it goes - we've considered doing the same thing before but didn't know if it would be worth the time, effort, & money.

I've seen a "Purple Turtle" resturaunt in Utah... it actually looked like a turtle too with a purple shell. Most snowcone stands, you don't even see the name, but it's still fun. You could do something like, "Purple Polar Sweets" You could paint it really cute. Like North Pole stirpes with purple and white. The Purple Whale, like the polar whale?

here is my brainstorm regarding snowcones and purple-

The Purple Crush? The Purple Cone? The Purple Cone People?
The Purple Wonder? The Purple Ice Box? The Purple Freezer? The Purple Polar? Purple Polar Express? The Purple Ice Shack? The Frozen Sugar Shack? The Purple Frozen Sugar Shack? The Freeze Factory? The Purple Freeze Factory? Purple the Magic Snowcone? Color Me Purple?

Purple Igloo is a good one too. Or the Purple Ice King. Even something silly like the Purple Coneheads...and ya'll can wear purple snowcone hats made out of paper and even make and sell your own "I'm a Purple Conehead" T-shirts. :)

It just came to me....

THE PURPLE PENGUIN

That way you can have a cute little logo/mascot! It would be a purple penguin holding a purple colored snowcone! And you can all get shirts and business cards with a little purple penguin etc. I think that would stand out, and who doesn't love cute penguins? My 3 year old is really into penguins right now, and he hasn't even seen Happy Feet yet!

You have gotten some great responses.

The 2 that came to my mind first were:

1. Purple Ice
2. Purple Paradise-I imagine a bright purple "hula hut" (I love Hawaiian themes) that would be so cute for our HOT summer months.

Please let us know what you decide on. Where is it going to be? I only have one in my area that we found and they were horrible. But, I am partial to the one in my hometown...my roots are in McAllen, TX 7 miles from the border of Reynosa Mexico and 1 1/2 hours from South Padre Island. You can only imagine that we had a snow cone stand on every corner it seemed like. Good Luck!!!

Hi!

I think Shandra W. came up with 2 great names! I think "The Purple Ice Cap" or "Purple People Eater" are great names for a snow cone stand. Let me know where you put it and I will bring my kids regardless of what you name it!

Hi K.

When I think of the color purple and something cold I think of Frost Bite. That could work because snocones are bites of cold, so maybe Frost Bites purplish glittery or shiny-like letters to make it look cold.

Good luck! Thanks for putting that question up. Was fun to use the creative side today :)

Quick question: Do you think people will think the snow cones are only purple that are sold there if the name has something with purple in it? If so, it would be neat if you could somehow have all flavors be purple (with food coloring or whatnot). It may be too time consuming, but I think kids would think it's neat to bite into a purple snow cone that pineapple flavored. I guess there could possibly be a lot of mix ups, though, if you did that. Just a thought. . .
