I decided to open an etsy shop to try and sell some of the costume jewelry we have leftover from our sales. And maybe some other vintage goodies like purses, scarves and dolls. But I got stuck on the second step. I need a name for my shop. Help.

un peu utilisé

I googled "a little bit used" in French, because you live in Louisiana and I'm stereotypically assuming everything should be French.

poubelle ou trésor

"trash or treasure", also French

louisiana restes

French for "Louisiana leftovers"

mel de cloches et de sifflets

"Mel's bells & whistles"

That's all I got.

Allow me to make some minor corrections. For Mel's Bells and Whistles, it'd be Les clochets et les sifflets de Mel.

For "Louisiana Leftovers" it'd be Les restes de Louisiane

Smile Big Good luck, Melody.

I don't know what you should call it, so I wrote you a piece of flash fiction about naming things, called Naming Things, which consists only of dialogue:

"Well, what are you going to do, boy? Will you go with your uncle to the mill, or will you stay here and help on the farm?"

"I'm not certain yet."

"It's high time you made up your mind. No more of this. Now which is it, boy?"

"Sir, I'm not sure."

"Damn you! Well, what do you want to be?"

"I don't know."

"What do you want to do?"

"I... I want to name things!"

"Name things? What sort of things?"

"I couldn't name them. Otherwise they would have names already. I want to name unnamed things. Things that have never been named before."

"Fool child! Nobody names things for a living."

"Why... you're right. There isn't even such a job."

"There isn't even such a thing."

"Then that will be the first thing I'll name, is my position as a maker of names! As a... as a Namemaker!"

Thanks Alicia. I don't think I want it to be in french, but I like "mel's bells and whistles". Even though I hate being called Mel, I think I can deal with than.

And uh... Thanks Dan.
