I have been wanting to create a social media website for some time now, but I have not been able too for several reasons. One of the main reasons is that I cannot seem to find a good meaningful name for the site. I have thought of everything but I still don't think that the names are meaningful.

Could you guys give me some ideas? Help me out? There may be a reward to the winner! 🙂

Thanks.

Social media is already saturated as it is, with millions of people already hooked up with Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc. The reason why people started to use these websites is because they were unique and creative, you had to ask for name inspiration which is a sign of the lack of creative qualities. People are not just going to go out of their way to search for potentially the next big social media site, nor are they likely to join upon discovering your website, it's harsh but it is also the truth. As I said, people joined these websites because they were unique, your website just looks like one huge cluster of all three of those sites. If anyone creates a social media website by themselves or without the financial backing of a company, the chances are they won't even make it, because they won't have any money for advertising and getting their name out of there.

Additionally, the three big social media sites that I mentioned look good and professional. Your site has many things wrong with it that will probably deter people immediately should they ever find it. For one, your title isn't even capitalized "social networking" looks quite trashy in my opinion, as if someone couldn't care to use capitals. You also lack a favicon, making it look plain and boring straight from the off, prior to even looking at the website. The first thing I notice? Your banner looks like a really low quality image, as if you've just took it from Google, re-sized it improperly and thrown text over the top. Your navigation bar has a missing link, no 'about' link and, "Welcome to our new site! Feel free to participate in our community!" sounds as if you're not making an effort, despite being polite, "Feel free" is effortless, no persuasion, nothing explaining the purpose of your site. Then the rest of the site, it's just Twitter/Facebook-esque. Nothing more to say about it.

Sounds harsh, hate me if you will, but I'm being honest.
 
Interesting. But, to be honest, what's the point of this? What does this site offer that other social media sites don't have?
 
If we do not know about your main idea we can offer you a good name.
But I like Yo!

This really depends on what your social network will be focusing on...what subject or niche, if any?

If general like Facebook, Twitter and such...I think there should still be a semi-niche. Twitter is a micro-blog, tweet are short messages like that of birds which gives it its brand. Facebook started as a college thing, Face Book was a college term and it went from there...

I once ran the largest and most active social network online for 'Storm Chasers'. It was called Chaser Update, giving storm chasers the ability to update their chasing adventure statuses. The name had the niche and action intended of the niche within the domain.
 
Social media is all about numbers. You need to build a huge following to even take that kind of a leap. Be prepared to invest millions into it, and not expecting to come out of it with a successful creation.
