What's in a name, anyway?
The name of your beach house is more important than you might think. After all, it's the first thing people see when they view a rental listing. The name of a beach house can tell a story. We love when a beach house name conjures up a certain feeling, mood, or image that can make you smile.
Below are the names of a few Topsail Island rentals, along with the picture we imagine when we hear them! Scroll to the end of this blog and we will give you a few tips for naming a beach house of your very own.
How to name YOUR beach house:
Here are a few tips if you are naming a beach house:
Make it personal
Like some of the homes above, it's fun to name your home after something (or someone) special.
Make it funny
We love a clever pun. There are so many words that are associated with the beach (sea, dune, wave, crab, sun, sand, tide, and more). A good play on words makes for a fabulous beach house name.
Google some ideas
There are plenty of great ideas out there to inspire you. Just Google keyword phrases such as:

Try a quote or song
Do you have a favorite line from a song? Maybe it would work as a name!
Alliteration is always fun
There is just something about a few words strung together that all start with the same letter that people love.
Evoke a mood
What does a beach house mean to you? Try to think of words that conjure up that image in your mind. Words like relax, rest, smile, happy, play, family, friends, breathe, or exhale are all great starting points for a beach house name.
