Help naming our roadside motels

[Kimberly Gamez]

Creative minds needed!

We own a handful of road side motels and are thinking about doing a rebrand and naming them all the same. We rent the units by the week or month, so not your typical motel but also not your typical residential rental. We consider them extended stays.

I need a name that could work in any town in case we continue to expand. Thoughts?

@Kimberly Gamez hard to top the previous post but if you’re still looking for ideas what immediately jumps to mind is something from The Simpsons like Rancho Relaxo, Snuggler’s Inn or the Sleep-Eazy Motel (make sure the bulbs in the P on your sign are always burned out). If you’re thinking of growing the business/franchising and catering to irony-loving millennials then you should definitely make it sound like a tech startup/ a sound a baby would make such as Stayio, Staysy, Linger-Longer, Homeasy, Homeegy, Homeonus, Motelio, etc… Or you could do something more Tom Robbins/ Another Roadside Attraction-esque to grab attention/ free publicity and toss in a combination hot dog stand/zoo into this concept and call it "Captain Kendrick's Memorial Hot Dog Wildlife Preserve Motel”. I’d stay there for sure.
