It took me quite a while when deciding on a title for my music magazine. I didn't know whether to keep it short, abbreviated, long, a made-up word or a word to do with a particular genre. There were tons of possibilities so this made it very difficult just to choose one!
My first choice was 'Uplugged', I thought this worked well as you would be able to instantly know that the magazine was about music. However, 'Unplugged' does seem like it like it would focus on acoustic music whereas I want my magazine to focus all different types of indie including indie rock and indie punk. So, this would not work.
I finally chose the name 'inD' (pronounced indie). I like how it's short and I decided on a short title because a majority of the participants in my questionnaire chose 'NME' as their favourite magazine, and 'NME' obviously has a short name too. Also, by calling my magazine 'inD' you straight away know that the magazines genre will be indie. Lastly, another reason I chose this as the title for my magazine was that the name doesn't just necessarily link to music, it links to indie fashion too - this is good because I want to involve fashion in my magazine.
