It’s still going to be a bit (at least a year) until I start actually going into the true design of it but I eventually want to make a few throws for the community, focusing on actually unique design that offers practical utility (e.g. I plan for all of my 1A yoyos will be able to talon grind effectively by incorporating a rim lip). Either way here are the names I had in mind: _Poll ([view on site](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/you-have-decided-introducing-hubris-yoyos/378461/1))_ Naming schemes related to each choice: Hubris: Mythical animals or creatures (e.g. my first oversized or 4A yoyo would be the Rukh, after the mythical bird. The Hydra would be a 1A yoyo also built for 3A. Griffon would be the flagship bimetal, Chimera for a tri-material, etc.) Give Me Money, I Give Yoyo: Various economic terms (e.g. Transaction, Free Market, etc.) Throw Bind Repeat: No planned names. Still working on this one. RPM: Spinning things or fast things (e.g. Mach, Hurricane, Quasar, Axle, etc.) Which route is the most amusing to you? ---

Im not a fan of Hubris, as it’s a negative term meaning arrogance. I assume it’s a joke. RPM is the safe choice. It’s short and easy to remember. Good luck with your endeavor! PS I like the naming convention for your yoyos with Hubris, but maybe use a different company name, like Mythical Yoyos or Mythic Yoyos. ---

I actually quite like the Hubris name and mythical creature theme. It gives you a lot of angles to work with and I think it’s the most fun of these. Treasures of the gods! GMMIGY is probably my second favorite, but not as interesting a concept for me. RPM’s a little generic but it is simple and effective. “Throw Bind Repeat” gives me major yoyo-flavored-“Live Laugh Love” vibes. Take that as you will I suppose, but I’m personally not a fan of live laugh love merch. ---

With GMMIGY you could have colorways based on different currencys which personally are some of my favorite colors 🤑 To add onto what @bigstupidbees said about the “live laugh love” vibes, I think that would unironically be sick for yo-yos. Like poorly painted wood, and that font that’s on everything lol I think the modern farmhouse aesthetic would fit well in current yo-yo meta. ---

Gonna vote for Hubris because the mythical creatures naming scheme is incredibly cool. That said, Hubris is a word that I think could lead to people slightly viewing the brand as a joke because it doesn’t really have a single positive application. Hubris is usually used to denote _unfounded_ arrogance, like Icarus flying too close to the sun, when I’d guess you want to convey well-deserved pride or confidence instead. ---

The modern farmhouse “live laugh love” ■■■■ often looks kind of cringe when it’s all over a house, but I absolutely agree that it would be phenomenal for yoyo. That is such a good idea ---

Naming a yoyo company is hard. In my opinion, you should choose something that will sound like a trusted brand in 100 years time. There are far too many brands that I feel aren’t named for longevity. Dont make it too long or too oddball. An example of this kind of name is ‘Yoyofactory’. ---
