About The Garden Name Generator
So many of you have requested a resource like this over years!
While the basic idea has been rolling around my brain for some time, it all came to fruition when I asked my site designer Alice Priestley if she would like to tackle this project.
Combining coding skills, drawing, a love of language, and a whole lotta creativity, it was a perfect fit for Alice’s multiple talents.
We’ve had a lot of fun behind the scenes testing the tool to see what sorts of names it would suggest. If you love a mishmash of word play, creative writing, and poetry, you’ll be nodding your head right now knowing how enjoyable this can be.
- Improbable Polliwog Patch
- Decidedly Weird Birdie Nest
- Disastrous Dandelion Haven
- Whimsical Bean Pole Manor
- Moonlit Robin Nursery
- Lucky Dill Hood
It was quite something to be sure the results generated are satisfyingly creative yet roll off the tongue but I do believe both have been achieved.
And with that, a big thank you to Alice for making yet another creative wish come true.
The challenge now is to decide which name I want to use for my garden. So many good options!
If you had fun using it, please share this page with friends!

I LOVE the name your garden bit. Made me so happy today.

I love your newsletters and look forward to receiving them…I especially enjoyed the garden pot ideas with so many possibilities to choose from. My 2 acres are mostly pasture but I have a few gardens…the deer eat most of my plants so have mostly wild ferns and salal…I have named it Lovejoy Acres because my grandparents owned the 40 acres surrounding mine and mine as well. I love my home in the country in Gig Harbor Washington…

The Garden Name was fun! I think I have mine overall but may need a few for separate areas.
Thanks for doing this.

I love Empress of dirt. I don’t always take to time to delve in and absorb all the great musings and ideas. When I do though, I am inspired and leave here happy and hopeful of things to bring into my own gardening world. Thank you so much Melissa.
