LifeTips sounds better to me, but I guess that's already taken. Anyway, it seems like plenty of other people like the name. :) I agree with Chris – the “tipper” part seems weird to me, like someone who goes around giving five dollar bills to everyone, or who is tipping things over.

LifeTipper doesn't grab me (though I'm not saying my suggestions were any better), the Tipper part has odd connotations for me. But names are largely irrelevant, they eventually become branding - I'm sure Apple got picked on and bagged (oh I couldn't resist those puns!) for their name in the early days. So good luck with it, it sounds like a great idea that you will find especially fulfilling.

It sounds sort of generic and not very memorable to me -- but I believe it will grow on me and it will likely be easy enough to remember for those who don't use bookmarks! I'm surprised it is even available :) Congrats to the winner! I’m not sure the name is clicking with me, yet.

Spending two days of my spare time making lists and reworking words showed me how difficult it is to come up with a memorable name that reflects your concerns and has a .com domain. I wonder if Liam was inspired by your center boxes: "Advertising Tips Affiliate Programs Blog Design Tips and News Blog Promotion Tips SEO Tips Writing Content Tips" And if one of your bizarres favorites was one of mine, you have my permission to share it. I'm proud of my choices, but I think LT's better. That’s a great title!

In retrospect, LifeTipper seems an almost obvious name but it took me a bit of time to get to it - in a roundabout manner using my usual domain naming techniques. And once I was there I felt confident that it would strongly identify with you and the personal branding you bring to ProBlogger. I spent an hour choosing another five or so entries, but LifeTipper was the one I felt best suited the vibe you were looking for. And I'm rather pleased you agree! Looking forward to watching it evolve and become a great success! Thanks Darren – I think the very idea of the competition was quite clever, and it was also fun to participate.
