Choosing the Perfect Blog Name: Paper and Salt

This is the desktop of my mind

I love this interview below with Nicole Villeneuve, the author of the blog Paper and Salt. The name Paper and Salt is so pretty and that is what caught my attention to continue reading the interview. The name rolls nicely on the tongue and I see it, just like the ladies having tea in her picture, in black and white. It’s delicate somehow, it’s as if I can hear the crisp sound of a good quality old page being turned in a book… Beautiful!

A few months ago I started my own blog Stockholm Serendipity. I love the word serendipity, for its meaning and also for the way it sounds and look on paper. I knew I wanted my blog name to include a city which I identify with, which for different reasons would be Stockholm, London, New York City or Tokyo. Stockholm Serendipity was a perfect match! To my eyes, my ears and my tongue. And my mind 🙂

If you want to read my blog post on how my thoughts were going about the name serendipity, you can find it here https://stockholmserendipity.wordpress.com/2014/01/17/on-the-topic-of-serendipity/ I’d love to hear your comment, and perhaps an insight into how you yourself came up with your blog name?

Happy reading!

  1. I do not even know how I ended up here, but I thought
    this post was great. I do not know who you are but definitely you are going to a famous blogger if you aren’t already 😉 Cheers!

    • Thanks Brandie! I love to write and started a blog because I found that I always had tons of thoughts on a number of issues, big and small, and Facebook wasn’t the right forum to elaborate on stuff… 😉 I’m very far from being a famous blogger though, because I let work, stuff and life in general come between me and blogging. Still have lots of stuff in my head and it keeps on building up, so any time now I’ll probably do a blogging marathon and post 10 things in a day. And then it’ll be another 2-3 months as it has been now for a whole. Alas. But I’m still here! And I’m excited to check out your blog too! Again, many thanks for your very kind words!
