Why Having a Unique Restaurant Name Matters
A unique name is important for several reasons. First, having a different name will make it much easier to market your restaurant, which is integral to getting diners through your doors. If you have a creative restaurant name, it’ll make it that much easier to secure a website and social media handles to generate online interest. If your customers can’t remember if your cafe is called “Cafe Paris” or “Paris Cafe,” for example, their Google searches may lead them to a competitor – which is something that you want to avoid.
While it may not be possible to have a completely unique name, it should at least be fairly different from the names of other restaurants in your area. This can help to avoid confusion and the potential of having to undergo expensive rebranding.
This leads us to another reason to pick a creative name: to avoid legal woes. Consider the example of the Hawaiian restaurant, Cheeseburger in Paradise, which has no relation to a now-closed chain restaurant with the same name (which happened to be backed by singer Jimmy Buffet). Buffet filed a lawsuit against the owners of the Hawaiian restaurants, even though those restaurants had opened long before Buffet’s chain was founded. While this lawsuit may be an extreme example, no restaurateur wants to get into a costly trademark battle.
Finally, having a unique name is important because it is an opportunity to tell your guests about your business. If there is something that stands out about your cafe – like the fact that you use butter imported from France – then your name is a perfect place to share it. A name is also the jumping-off point for all of your branding, so choosing a great one sets the stage for everything else that comes along with it – such as a slogan, logo, and even decor.
