CREATIVE ADVICE NEEDED!
I'll probably start fishing on the various message boards that I frequent, also. But I know that most of the people I chat with on message boards also read this journal.
I need a name for my studio, an umbrella name that I can use for a hub to pull together all my projects. I used to call it Susitna Mythographics, but I don't like that name for several reasons. I will probably keep that one as the "publishing" arm of (Whatever) Studios, since I have a block of ISBNs under that name, but I need a studio name, one that is general enough I can use it for both my comics and for my freelance art/design work.
Ultimately, of course, it is a personal decision. But I think I could have avoided a lot of the problems I've had with the SuMyth name if I'd floated that one past some friends before deciding to use it.
Here are some of the names I've been thinking about over the last few months:
Arctic Light Studio
Fireweed Studio
Fox Tale Studio
Sleeping Lady Studio
Raven Dreams Studio
Black Spruce Studio
I'm hunting for something that reflects Alaska and/or the Arctic, but also has a harmonious sound and isn't horribly over-used (which is the trouble with anything having to do with ravens).

Arctic Light Studio
When I saw this at first, I thought it read "Arclight" which is the name of an X-Men villain, one of the Marauders. Not a bad connotation since it conjures up the whole comics thing. Without the mis-read, Arctic Light is very serene, reminiscent of the northern lights.
Fireweed Studio
Makes me think of "numbweed", the paste/plant from the Anne McCaffrey novels. On its own, it's a sort of fantasy-ish sort of name.
Fox Tale Studio
Cute! Could get some confusion with the Foxtrot comic, but hey, that's not a bad thing.
Sleeping Lady Studio
Not my favorite of the bunch. I'm not sure why, but I don't like it.
Raven Dreams Studio
I like it slightly more than SL, but I do like how it ties into your RC book.
Black Spruce Studio
Trees are good to associate with. They're strong and durable, very eco-friendly.
