Tips for Creating a Catchy YouTube Channel Name
Maybe the names above inspired you a little, but you’d rather come up with your own YouTube channel name ideas. As you go about creating your own, keep the following in mind:
Keep it short and snappy
Shorter names are more likely to catch a viewer’s attention, and they are easier to remember (making it easier for viewers to find you again or recommend you to their friends).
Use action words
Basically, try to include words that convey energy or enthusiasm. Verbs like “exploring,” “crafting,” or “learning” are dynamic and more compelling to viewers. They also help hint at what the viewer can expect from your YouTube videos.
Try alliteration
Our brains like repeating sounds or letters, so try using alliteration to come up with a creative YouTube channel name. Check out some of the following:
- Kids Crafting Carnival
- Fun Fam
- Adventure Avenue
- Crafty Clan Chronicles
- Whimiscal Wanderers
Using alliteration often gives you a memorable YouTube channel name that is also short and snappy—two birds with one stone.
Other tips to keep in mind while creating your channel name include working in descriptive words, experimenting with rhyming, or even incorporating your family name, like “Fun Franklin Fam” or “Crafting Castillos.”
Things to Consider When Choosing a Name for Your Channel
You’ve got a couple of the best YouTube channel name ideas picked out. Maybe you even came up with your own channel name. But before you commit to one and change your channel name, I’ve got a few more things for you to keep in mind.
Choose a YouTube channel name that reflects your niche
If your channel is focused on, for example, easy family recipes, try to pick a name that captures that as best you can. While “Crafty Family Creations” could include culinary creations, better options would be “Family Feast Fusion” or “Kids Cuisine.”
Check for availability and trademarks
Make sure the name you choose is actually available! You can use a site like namecheckr.com or do a quick Google search (search “name” + YouTube) to double-check that your name is free. Another super easy way is to just type the name you want to use into YouTube’s search.
If you plan to expand outside of YouTube as well, check other social media platforms to make sure the name is free there, too, before committing.
Consider your target audience
If your channel is geared toward single parents or dads, for example, choose a name that speaks to that target audience. In these cases, “Solo Parenting Pulse,” “Solo Parent Squad,” “Dad Approved Toys,” and “Papa’s Cooking Corner” all address a target audience while also staying snappy and niche-focused.
Family YouTube Channel Names Ideas – FAQ
How can I change my YouTube channel name?
If you need to change your name after you start your YouTube channel, click your profile image on your channel page and head into the “customize channel” section of your channel settings. Under “basic info” you’ll find a place to change your name and handle. Keep in mind that you can only change your channel name three times every 90 days.
You can also read more information on changing your YouTube channel name through the app.
Why is it important for me to choose a catchy channel name that fits my niche?
Having a catchy channel name that matches your niche sets viewers up for what to expect from your content. It helps connect you with the right audience and thus builds your community of viewers faster.
Should I include keywords in my family YouTube channel name?
Keywords are a great way to improve searchability; therefore, you should include them in your channel name.
However, including keywords is only one thing to consider – just don’t include them for the sake of inclusion. Having a name that is catchy and memorable is still essential.
