Esquire Complains About Hotel Bar Names

Joe Oestreich is right. They’re generally awful. “The greatest day in a bar owner’s life must be the day he names it,” he writes. “And yet so many hotel bars are called something we can’t in good conscience invite someone to.” Among the names that offend him: Fandangles, Whispers, Celebrities and Bowties. The namers might want to take some inspiration from these places.

Hi michael,
I’ve been racking my brain for a great bar name for 3 months now. Like you said i’d like the day i find a name to be great but as yet nothing is sticking. We’re opening a beach/lounge bar thats ultra cool, with great ambience and high quality service. I’d much appreciate any suggestions you have.
