Contest. Name that Junker!


I have been working on new Tshirt designs for my soon to launch Junk Revolution online store. This little lady was designed by Teiran Haskin, friend, graphic designer, and fellow junker. Originally I planned on calling her Misunderstood Junker. I then changed my mind and named her Junk Lady. A few days later I thought of Junk on the brain. I am now totally confused and undecided. It finally dawned on me to just ask you!

I am planning on printing her name within the design, so it can't be very long. Please let me know who you think she looks like. Tieran and I will vote on your suggestions and announce the winner right here on Sept 10 2008.

Deadline for your entry is Wednesday August 27 2008 at 11:59 PM Central. We will have the Tshirts printed in time to sell them at the Junk Bonanza. I think they will be a cool green...haven't decided that yet either.

What do you win? Four Tshirts for you and your junking friends, right off the press! (You pick the sizes, of course.)

I can't wait to hear your ideas...I must have junk on my brain.

My suggestion is "The Junkess" (like goddess) or "Junk Goddess".

I also suggest "Junkodite" (as in Aphrodite, goddess of love & beauty).

How about:

Lady Re-Purpose

LuAnn

Robolady said...

I love her. I can't think of a name though. BUT----- if you connect those gears all together in her head, she could be "robolady" ;) In All seriousness though, she is beautiful and I love the concept. My head feels like that most of the time. too much junk on the brain.

Cali Homemaker said...

Love the graphic... "Junk in the Attic" or "Mother of Re-Invention" or "Re-Invention Lady" or "Reuse, Recycle, Repurpose"

Polly said...

I really like your "junk on the brain" idea. That's catchy! Also, thought of "junk head" or "a head full of junk"

Sorry for so many but my mind is running wild with ideas.

I know you want short...but my mind doesn't think short. (Even your lady's brain is full!) Here's a few I came up with:

Perpetual Junk Hunter

Think Junk: You can wrap your mind around it!

Junk. It keeps your brave moving.

Junk. Keeps a brain alive!

Spinning Wheels: Junk on the Move

Junk: You are always on my mind.

What do you think of "Gitcher Brainingear"?

(It's early, mine isn't in gear yet!)

Am hoping you'll add me to your blog list!

Carol said...

cindee said...

Thought of another one
Junkin' Diva

Sandra said...

My idea is 'junkologist' or 'junkoligess'.

pedalpower said...

How about
junkology (like psychology?)
Idea Factory
Think Green, Think Junk
or how about this quote right under her: "To invent, you need a good imagination and a pile of junk." ~Thomas Edison

vickie said...

She is the most beautiful woman I've ever seen. Great job on her creation.
I'd name her
JAR
for Junk And Revolution,
because in order for there to be a continuance of life for the next generation of junkers, there has to be a revolution, a change of thought fro what is junk and what isn't.
Thanks for inviting us along.
Vickie

gram_nh said...

I think you should name her after yourself!

Junk-ki as in a Junk Junky!

Greenjade007 said...

Some of my ideas; "HEAD OF JUNK", "HEAD OF ALL JUNK", "HEAD FULL OF JUNK", "QUEEN OF ALL JUNK" AND "JUNK QUEEN"...

Thanks ~ Cheryl F.

What about Junkqueen? Sounds nice for me, it's one word (i like one-word names) and she can become Queen of Junkers.

THE TATTERED NEST said...

how about...visions of junk danced in her head...

Sylvia said...

So many creative names. I can always use another Tshirt, LOL

JunkMixMiz

The Kat... said...

Fred said...

How about Junk Ahead?
...Pat

just Cait said...

I really like njtomboy's Mother of Invention. Great one!

How 'bout Junk to Position... like juxtaposition.

And did someone else come up with

Greenjade007 said...

Another Idea; "THIS IS YOUR BRAIN ON JUNK"

:-)

What about 'Junkqueenia'?

Good things,
Susie

T=ME said...

BELOVED JUNK or Lucky Junk
Terri

doodles said...

Junk-Minded would be my guess. She has such great junk on her mind. Nothing better to be thinking about.

Tracy said...

Oh wow! She is really beautiful and with all that stuff in her brain she looks very smart also so I think she really deserves a name that is fitting, how about:

The Divine Intellectual Junker

or

Silhouette of the Divine Intellectual Junker

or

The Beautiful Intellectual Junker





Tracy in Alabama

aciupa said...

Have a few more ideas....
"Anita Junque", as in "I need a junk"
or
"Anita Junquefix", as in "I need a junk fix"

Good luck in choosing a name from the many creative ones received thus far!

urbanshocker said...

I think you should call her "Prudence". After all, prudence is thriftiness,isn't it?

Tracy said...

a few more ideas:

Madam Junkgalore

or

Junker Belle (instead of a Southern Belle she's a Junker Belle) cute,huh? I thought so anyway.

or

The Fabulous Imaginer

or

The Junk Imagineer
