[CLOSED] Name the Skeletool color and WIN!
on: July 09, 2014, 03:25:16 AM
I contacted Texas Tool Crafters and let them know our 8th Anniversary was coming up and asked if they'd like to join in the fun.  They jumped at the chance, and came up with a really cool way to do it-  they come up with some new custom Skeletool colors and they have asked us to help name them! 



Basically they want a cool name for the new color that is both accurate and cool sounding.  As TTC puts it:

Quote
For the naming game we need to try to get the names into one of the following two formats:
X <genericcolorname>

or
<genericcolorname> X
where X is some short phrase or adjective.
for example:
sapphire blue
purple monster
Of course we can't use anything that is already in use by another company (sapphire blue, lava red, etc), and we can't have any copyrighted terms.



Whoever comes up with the winning name (as chosen by TTC staff) will win a Skeletool in that color!  How cool is that?



I'll let this run for a few days- this contest is for the BLUE one in the foreground- we'll do the same contest for each color in time, so start thinking of names for other colors too.  :D

Great looking Skeletool.

Thank you Texas Tool Crafters for the incredible giveaway!

That color looks so juicy so the first thing that came to mind was Berry Blue.

Thank you for the chance.  :tu:

I usually name colors when doing custom matches at work.  They're rarely very creative (Trim white, wall blue, etc), or if they are they're not always family-friendly.  >:D  This contest requires some thought.  Damn.  :facepalm:
There's no such thing as "Too pretty to carry".  There's only "Too pretty NOT to carry"...... >:D

Alliteration always works well in creating catchy names.

Bahama Blue


How about a name that actually depicts a real life color of a known entity.

Peacock Blue.
