"As usual Fiona has pulled it out of the bag, I had been pondering for a while over a name and got lost down a rabbit hole of overthinking. This course has given me the confidence to know what fits and finally move forward."

Amy Weatheritt, brand designer

create an incredible name for your next project

Naming is one of those tasks that so many of us find really hard. The stakes are high, expectations rocket and the fear of getting it wrong can be paralysing.

I've been creating names for companies for more than a decade now, and what I know is that with the right focus, inspiration and know-how, you can create a powerful name in hours - often moments.

Naming doesn't need to be the big behemoth of a task we often build it up to be. You don't need to stall on launching your business, hold up your rebrand or feel underwhelmed you 'settled' on something, just because you couldn't think of anything better.

"Brilliant value for money... I would definitely recommend this!"

Jasmin Waterhouse


let's create a brilliant name for your brand

"If you are looking for someone to take you by the hand and guide you smoothly and elegantly through the creative process of naming a brand or a new offering, this is a brilliant course that will keep you inspired and motivated all the way."

Stefania Bogioli, artist & polymath

"I just completed your Naming Masterclass and I wanted to tell how amazed and happy I am. I gave this course my full attention for 2 days and I've now created a beautiful name for my business. I must share it with you because without the Naming Masterclass, I could not have done it. Believe me, I've tried."

Shea Bailey, stationery brand owner

create a name that will last the distance

Whether you're renaming an existing company, launching a new brand or have a product, workshop or online course in mind, this concise and highly effective masterclass will walk you through the process of developing a brilliant name from start to finish.

a creative, inspirational and instinctive process

The Naming Masterclass is a concise class, highly-focused on a specific outcome. You'll find it quite different to some of my longer-form online courses, which are designed to immerse you in a subject and really broaden your skillset. Here, I've deliberately kept this class short, highly effective and light on content.

When you're on the cusp of launching something new, time is of the essence. It's often the name that holds everything up and I want this to be the catalyst for you moving your business forwards. So here we concentrate very much on getting to the right solution for you, in the most efficient manner. End to end, the videos and tutorials will take you around a day to work through. But you'll also need to give yourself space and time to digest.

With the right conditions, you can absolutely have a brilliant name for your project well within a week or two. So let's get stuck in and enjoy the process!

"I loved this course, and I've found a name!! Honestly didn't expect to in just one evening. The course really consolidated the work Ive done on clarity and vision with you and it came at just the right time. I'm so excited to share it and start to use it. Excited and nervous in equal measure - Eeek!!"

Finding a name for your business can be quite challenging, with many elements to consider. Fiona helped me drill down to the essence of what I wanted my name to be and coached me there with care and insight. She helped me understand how I wanted to feel when I found the right name for my business. The moment I realized it, I felt an instant thrill and shouted, "That's it!" The relief I felt was undeniable. I am now excited to share my business name with potential clients. I can envision the possibilities it will create for them and the visuals I will use for my website. The road ahead feels clear and very achievable. This is the third course I’ve taken from Fiona, and she continues to showcase her mastery. Denise Lampron

I had spent months trying to figure out my new business name, spent hours googling to identify different ways in how to create the perfect name. After reading both of Fiona's books and attending a few of her stay at home seminars i realised there is no one else's advice i would want to take upton tackling this very important task than fiona's! I had complete trust that her expertise and experience in brand design would deliver the results i needed and they sure did. I had my brand name about 70% of the way through the course, the feeling once completing it and getting exactly what i wanted from the masterclass was so fulfilling. I would definitely recommend this!

This was both a pleasurable experience and a great learning journey. While I was most interested in developing a wonderful name for a new product, I found the opportunity to re-visit my whole brand an enlightening experience. Fiona is eloquent and accessible - what a combination - and has created a valuable resource that is a total joy to use. I know I'll be re-visiting elements of this course again and will enjoy that experience. Great value - what price inspiration?

This masterclass is even more than what you need when you get stuck looking for a name, not only for a business, a product or a service but also for any other personal project you are dreaming of. Inspiration and momentum are the words I would use to describe the funny process. Thank you Fiona! (Sorry about my English. I hope I have instilled my real feeling.)

I was really stuck trying to find a new name for my business, I knew my old name wasn't right but it felt impossible finding a new one. This course helped me gain clarity about what I wanted from my brand & how I wanted people to see me. One of the modules was collecting images, cuttings etc. of things I liked and items that inspired me, through this I came up with a name that I love!

Frequently Asked Questions

As long as you need! This course is completely self paced and you have lifetime access, so you can work through it at whatever rate suits you. You can also revisit the lessons as often as you need - so as you develop your offering you can come straight back to the course and work through the process again.
No. Thanks for asking. Your enrolment fee covers one user.
I share lots of content for free on my website and these online courses are priced fairly and more than reflect the value you'll gain from the class. If you'd like to discuss prices for multiple logins or even an affiliate programme if you have lots of clients who would benefit, then I'd be delighted to hear from you.
It's not, but that won't affect the gross price you pay for the course. Essentially, everyone pays the same price for the courses but that includes 20% VAT for businesses within the UK. If you're a long time member of the community based in Europe, you will probably remember that pre-Brexit, VAT was also included in your course investments. Since January 2020, when the UK left the EU we have not charged VAT on products and services in Europe. Either way, what you really need to know is that wherever you are based, the headline price of the course is as listed! Nothing is *added on* for tax.
Yes, absolutely. Invoices are automatically generated when you enrol in a course. You have the opportunity to add your company details on sign up or in your client dashboard.
Nope, as soon as you enrol you'll gain access to the content via your dashboard in The Brand Stylist Academy so you can work through everything on your own timeframe. When you need a name, you kind of need it now (or yesterday) so fill your boots and let's get that project off the ground!
Online courses are, by their very nature, inherently, 'non-returnable' and as such, are non-refundable.
I have taught tens of thousands of students across the years and as you'll see from the course ratings and reviews, am renowned for creating high quality courses and learning experiences.
The course page and curriculum should make the scope of the course really clear but if you have any questions about the suitability of the class prior to signing up, please do email me and I'll be delighted to answer.
Like all offerings from The Brand Stylist, this is a high value, well-considered course that will have a huge impact on your business. I've priced it at a level that makes it accessible to as many entrepreneurs as possible and I'm confident you'll love it! Do take a look at the reviews to get an insight into the quality of my classes. You're going to have a ball!
Your investment includes lifetime access to this course, so you can work through it at a pace that suits you. Go nuts and binge on everything in a couple of days or take your time and reflect in between lessons. You have complete control over how you work through the class. And with lifetime access (given that you stick to the terms) you'll be able to revisit any of those lessons that resonate the most in the future.
