1. Magazine Name ideas
Mayhem – This is an
option for my
magazine names as I
think it signifies the
type of vibe I want
my music magazine
to give off. I also
think this is an
effective name as it
symbolises the
personality type of
my target audience
and I also believe this
would be the most
successful name for
promoting the ethos
of my magazine as it
is about the mayhem
that goes on within
the music industry.
MFY – Music for you
This is acronym and
an option for my
music magazine name
as it shows that my
magazine is aimed
specifically at the
readers rather than
advertisement for the
artists, this would also
be a unique selling
point and effective
because it signifies
how much I consider
my audience.
MOL – Music Out
Loud
This is an acronym
and is an effective
name idea as it
demonstrates the
type of audience that
will purchasing my
magazine, it also
reveals the contents
of my magazine will
include well known
artists whose songs
are well known and
played often. This
name is unique and
would stand out next
to other music
magazines when
placed on a shelf
which is a strong
selling point.
INDIE OUT
This is a compound
word, I am not sure I

This is a phrase, I
love this as a

word; I really like this

2. would use this as I
don’t think it fits in
with the cool vibe I
want my magazine to
have, I also don’t
think this name would
appeal to my
audience. However I
do like the way this
name is similar to
“inside out” but
instead represents the
magazine genre.

has connotations of
partying and going
out to clubs ect, this
is effective as the

audience allowing
them to create a

loud it sounds catchy.
name as it indicates
the genre of music I
will be including
within my magazine.
When spoken it also
sounds memorable
and very catchy which
I like as it would be a
unique selling point.
PING
This is a connotative
word; this replicates
the sound when you
receive a message
demonstrating how
important social
media is within my
magazine. This name
would be effective as
it is short and catchy
so would be
remembered by my
audience. This word is
also onomatopoeia;
Smash
This is a connotative
word. It shows that
break through artists
will be shown in my
magazine and already
well known artists
who have “smashed”
through the industry
and become
successful. This name
also has connotations
of energy reavling
how my magazine will
give off positive vibes
Start off
This is a compound
word; I love this
name as it relates to
my magazine as I will
be including a large
variety of
new/upcoming artists.
I think this name is
also effective as it
tells the reader what
kind of artists to
expect inside the
magazine without
having to look at the

name would also be
memorable and stand
out in comparison to
other magazines
when placed on a
shelf.
Boom box
This is a compound
word, however this
name is quite basic
and when spoke out
loud doesn’t sound
catchy. This name
also seems quite
boring and doesn’t
relate to my
magazine genre so I
don’t think this is
interesting enough.
Indie-cisive
This is a compound
word, this is meant to
be like “indecisive”,
this name would be
effective as it sounds
catchy and would be
memorable. I think
this would be a good
mast head for my
indie magazine as it
states the music
genre within the
name so it
immediately tells the
audience what to
expect from my
magazine.
Scream
This is a connotative
word, it is also a
common idea for a
mast head, I like this
as it represents the
noise made at
concerts when artists
come on stage, this
interpretation could
make this name
memorable.

one letter idea is
recognisable and

been for Q. I chose
the letter “X” as I
think it is quite edgy,
it also could be
interpreted as extra,

want my magazine to
give my audience
extra.

makes when played,
and this is also
onomatopoeia. I think
this name is good as
it is short making it
remember-able. In
addition it doesn’t
relate directly to my
magazine genre so
this isn’t one of my
main considerations.
