How to pick a meme coin name and ticker

2 min read
In short

A good meme coin name is short, easy to say out loud and easy to type into search. The ticker should be 3 to 6 letters that clearly point back to the name.

Names that work

Two words at most, a clear picture in the head and no tricky spelling. If a friend can't type it after hearing it once, it's too hard.

Tickers that work

Use letters people expect from the name. A ticker that looks random makes it harder for buyers to find your coin and easier for copycats to confuse them.

What to avoid

Real people's names, brand names and anything hateful. They can get your coin hidden and they put buyers off.

FAQ

Can two coins have the same ticker?

Yes, so always share your contract address, not just the ticker.

Should the ticker match the name exactly?

It doesn't have to, but buyers find coins faster when it does.
