I'm not going to comment on which you should use, given that a few of those suggestions were ones that I put up... but I will say that using "sexy" would kind of be ripping off Smiley's

[Stuie]

I thought sexy might be ripping off smiley, but since no one carries it, rumors are he isn't making it anymore, and sexyshisha is their domain. I think we could all agree to let it slide, especially when Zona is dropped off.

I am a nerd so Epic holds a special place in my heart. Although I think just calling it Epic Shisha would be fun.

Beyond that I would say that something like Zona Transient or Zona Nirvana might be good. Edited May 29, 2008 by Kalutika

i threw the sexy in because it is not being used by anyone.so of course it is a good word, and it doesn't exist..
but that was also why I was asking as well..maybe something better..

[mobbed]

heh artisian
for real

artesian or premium blend. the other ones seem cheap, gimmicky, and sort of stupid (sorry folks).

i mean, if im buying shisha, im not gonna want something labled as EPIC. i want something that sounds like its quality. top choice and top notch sound used-car salesman gimmicky, oasis is a noun, not sure how that got on the list.... unless you completely take out zona. cloud 9 seems cool but it also has a sort of narcotic sound to it. sultry and sexy seem a little weird. aces is also a noun, and calling your shisha "chimeric" is extremely non-descript and sounds ridiculus. tasty could work, but im more of a fan of artesian or premium blend. smooth also works, but not one of my top choices.


sorry to everyone who presented those adjectives, i mean i am a fan of EPIC things (METALLL) and i mean theyre all good adjectives... i jsut dont think most of them work for shisha.

[jfaltous]

Yeah, looking over the list I agree with SafeSearchOff for the most part. However I don't necessarily see the narcotic association to the Cloud 9 one. Also, I'd suggest using "Premium" as opposed to "Premium Blend", because while the former simply implies a higher standard the latter implies that there is a non-premium blend in existence (think AF vs Golden AF, Tangiers vs Tangiers F-Line).

And although Smiley's is no longer in existence, I still feel like Zona's Sexy Shisha too closely resembles Smiley's Sexy Shisha to be worth considering.

Totally agree with SafeSearchOff here, both Artisan and Premium are classy and not overstating or silly.

you could also look at what cigarette companies do, words like ultra light, ultra smooth, stuff along those lines... Edited May 29, 2008 by s_smith001

im glad we make all the business decisions for you

how to make your tobacco, what to do about the packaging, how to keep in the flavor, what to call it, what the logo looks like.

you'd really name your tobacco Zona's Awesome Tobacco? that sound so stupid. I can't believe thats even an option. Premium blend is the best, however used by every other tobacco maker.

Call it Zona's Exceptional Quality Blends

[NickReppinThe909]

artisan or top notch

[cartercdad]

no oasis either already used by someone else

[questions]

no oasis either already used by someone else

thanks..didn't find that in any searches...

[cartercdad]

zona mist
or zona fog
zona blackout


and by oasis it is a tobacco being made and named by someone else on another forum

[Jeff_T]

Artisan sounds like bread not shisha, idk.
What about Sublime, Zona Sublime Shisha...

[EternalSoil]

use smexy instead =)

[SafeSearchOff]

thats artisan >.<

what was proposed was "artesian"

[Toxik916]

I still like my idea of Zona's Seductive Shisha and if you plan on dropping the "Zona" Seductive shisha sounds pretty good by itself. But honestly the name isnt that big of a deal peaople dont buy shisha based on the fancy logo or clever name. It could be called Shit Sandwich Shisha as long as its a good product people will buy it.

Yes, I fullly agree, that in a perfect world that is the way it works, but honestly, we all know that isn't how it is...people love fancy packaging and that is what draws them in..quality keeps them coming back.I believe(i and a couple of others) that my product is very good and only getting better.. so now I want the masses to try it in the stores I am selling it to...
