200+ Candle Making Business Names That Fit on a Tiny Label

Nobody can smell your candle through a screen. That’s the whole problem.

So the name has to do the job the scent can’t. It has to tell somebody what the room will feel like once they’ve lit it, before they’ve spent a penny.

Here are 200, sorted by the mood you’re selling.

(Take the one you can already picture printed on the lid.)

How to Choose a Candle Making Business Name

Three tests. Run your shortlist through all of them.

The label test. Your name goes on a circle roughly the size of a beer mat, read at arm’s length, usually in bad shop lighting. Long names shrink until nobody bothers. Count the letters before you fall in love.

The scent range test. Name the mood, not the smell. Call yourself Cinnamon Hearth and you’ve locked yourself out of every fresh, green and citrus scent you’ll want to make by next June.

The gift test. Most candles get bought for somebody else. Read your shortlist back and ask which one works written on a card. A name that only sounds like a treat you’d buy yourself is doing half the job it could be.

Now go and pick one.

If you plan on having a website or blog, first check your name is available.
