Planning Of Names

I have listed possible names for my Pop Music Magazines, and any connotations or relevant points.

• Pop Passion- This name uses alliteration to make the name more memorable, whilst still being informative about what the magazine is about - pop music. 'Passion' is defined as a strong feeling / emotion. It represents the magazine as really enjoying / caring about pop music; which is reflective of the indented audience I am trying to attract.
• Major Music - Another example of alliteration. 'Major' is defined as something important. It has a secondary musical definition too, it is used to recognise songs scales - a 'major key'. Furthermore many pop artists who will be featured in this magazine, are signed by major record labels. The reader can connote that the magazine will be talking about the most important music (popular- chart music) and hopefully appreciate the music references.
• Pop Music Post (Abbreviated to PMP) - Inspired from my case study 'NME'. 'Post' is often used in newspapers names, it creates representation that my magazine is professional. Also the abbreviation of the name, makes the name shorter and more memorable.  
• Social Sound- 'Social' defined as an informal gathering of friends. Creates representation that you will talk about the contents on this magazine, and enjoy listening to the songs together. Further links to gender stereotypes, for my target audience young women. I often see girls sharing headphones when listening to music in the sixth form centre, opposed to boys who have solitary listening habits. Women are more likely to enjoy music together - which is fitting to the name 'Social Sound'.
