I need help naming my product.  I have a patent pending on an adjustable totebag for books.  Target market: women who read.  Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

sounds interesting, your own view of how important books are and how cute or edgy you want the product to sound will be up to you. You`ve probably thought of many possibilities and you might find some over laps when you see any suggestions but here goes,

fun style:
BOOKSTER
BOOKABLE
BOOKSPAN
BOOKSPANDER

LIBERO

BIBLIA

BIBLIOBAG

Good luck,

I don`t understand "adjustable tote bag for books." What`s that mean...a strap that gets longer or shorter? I`d like some more description, before trying to work out an interesting name. Maybe?

It would be helpful to also list all the features and benefits of your bag.

Thank you savant (don`t want to call you idiot).  And sorry to be so vague.  My product is actually a reusable book cover which adjusts to any size book.  It replaces your dust jacket, and remains on the book while you read it.  There are adjustable handles so you can carry it like a tote or over your shoulder.  It also has pockets large enough for basic items like keys, cash, and phone.  So it turns your book into a purse.  My product covers, carries, and protects your book.  I hope that helps.

Ah....an excellent idea and description! :-)

So why not call it "Book Tote?" Wait...I think "Tote" might possibly be a registered trademark for the umbrella company.....?

It`s not a book "bag." hmm...  What about a "Book Pack?" Or a play on purse, a "Book Pocket?"

Booklover,

As I read your first sentence of this thread, "adjustable totebag for books" - I actually pictured an adjustable bag that carries books.  So the first name that popped out of my head was actually, Book Totes. 

I didn`t read anyone else`s comments at all. Then as I read further down the thread, you said it is actually a "reusable book cover which adjusts to any size book and that there are adjustable handles so you can carry it like a tote or over your shoulder.  It also has pockets large enough for basic items like keys, cash, and phone.  So it turns your book into a purse.  My product covers, carries, and protects your book." -  which I think the name Book Totes still fits.

And then I finally read Craig`s comment and he was thinking along the same lines I did, naming it "Book Tote"! Funny how we thought of the same thing!

So, my clear suggestion would be "Book Totes". 

Hope that helps.

Jeannie

Thanks guys.  Yeah, it certainly is a book tote, but I fear that is something I could not trademark because it is already the generic word for a tote bag that carries a book.  I need to trademark the name of my product right?  Maybe the "blank" booktote?  Great suggestions everyone, I really appreciate it.

OK, here`s a few REALLY off the wall, but they may cause someone to make a leap to something else.

The Burse... The purse for your book! 

The Book-Along... Take your book along!  (Naa)

The ToBo... The Tote for your Book!  ( Remember, Google was not a word several years ago) 

Just for fun, the worst name I`ve thought of . . .
