We often say that green brands need to be great brands in their own right and should steer away from clichéd green marketing messages, so we thought this month it would be great to give you some examples of the best green brand names to give you a bit of inspiration.

These are our top 10 green brand names:

1. Nudie Jeans – the trendy organic jeans brand name is bang on target. Amazing website too.

2. Abel & Cole – traditional, quality name for the organic grocer that’s proved easy to remember with amazingly high brand awareness amongst consumers.

3. Juicy Lucy – this fun, catchy name is feminine, perfectly fits the product line, and tells the story of the organic cosmetics company founded by two girls both called Lucy.

4. Beaming Baby – a positive, catchy name, focuses on the benefits of organic baby products, i.e. happy, healthy babies.

5. Muc Off – one of Britain’s best selling bike cleaning fluids, the name perfectly appeals to its target market of mountain bikers with a name that they can’t forget.

6. Seasalt – the organic clothing company from Cornwall has a simple, catchy name that stirs up memories of holidays by the seaside.

7. Seeds of Change – a clever play on words for the organic food company, it helped to launch their original range of organic seeds, and still works now with their wider product range.

8. Freitag – although actually the Swiss bag companies founders’ surname, the name is distinctive and has a suggestion of Germanic quality, helping to become a cult international brand.

9. Green & Blacks - the perfect name for dark organic chocolate, presented as a surname it gives a suggestion of quality and presents its green qualities so cunningly that only those who care actually notice.

10. Sheep Poo Paper – humourous and memorable, it only appeals to a niche market, but it targets that niche extremely well.
