Drive through espresso

I was just looking over my syllabus and realized that I am having my graphic design class start their logo project on Thursday. They are all going to be doing logos for a drive through espresso place. Since they are Juniors I pick names and have them draw them out of a hat since you don't get to pick your clients in the real world. But, I haven't picked names yet...

If you have ideas for names for drive through espresso stands, let me know...

The results of a personal brainstorming session, without much regard for quality control:

Java Jet
One 4 the Road
Cuppa Commute
EspressWay
Joe 2 Go
Drive Time Espresso
StarTrucks (okay, I said no quality control)
The Extra Shot
Perq's

These are all great (well, okay, StarTrucks is a little iffy...) :-)

thank you!

I guess that "Coffee, bitch?" would not be appropriate.

Cappuchin-go
Perc-no-late
Java Jumpstart

Uh, no. Your Right. I shudder to think that "coffee, bitch?" might end up in someones portfolio that they are trying to get a job right out of shool with.... I thought it was kind of clever though...

I really like Perc-no-late.

[livejournal.com profile] fuzzygruf directed me here, and I will suggest "Sunrise Espresso" since it's the name of the drive thru one we have here in town.

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2005-01-19 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It's added to the list. Thank you!

Welcome to LJ, Troy!

My suggestions:

Espresso Express
Nexpresso
Coffee Car-ma
Coffee Caravan
Has-Beans
Java Drive (this is a real street in Sunnyvale, CA!)
Cup On The Run
Java Bean-a-Rama

I think that's sufficient.

Hugs!

Hi Alan,

I really like Coffee Car-ma. I hope someone draws that one out of the hat! The others are going on the list too. they are very fun.

I really like Caffine-a-Go-Go. That will be a fun one.

Thanks!

Ideas? I think I remember what those were...

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2005-01-19 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah. Still taking cold medicine eh? I finally got to stop yesterday (though I still have a plugged up ear making me feel spacier than usual...)

Hi there!

Fancy running into you. How fun!

I'm sorry to hear about your relationship breaking up. Hopefully it will be for the better in long term, but that never makes the short term any more enjoyable.

And I will indeed give my best to Ron. Did you want pictures? ;-)

Forget Bob, but send ME pics! [livejournal.com profile] lowfatmuffin is evil! E-V-I-L!

here's my homework assignment answer's:
High-octane Espresso
Full-Serve Espresso
Buzz 'n Run

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2005-01-19 10:17 pm (UTC)(link)
I like Buzz'n Run. Plus it will let me give who ever pulls it (assuming it doesn't get left in the hat) a hard time about thinking past obvious solutions (i.e. using a Bee as the mascot)

Thanks!

Welcome to LJ Troy.

Also with zero quality control:
Fresh-Bru Drive-Thru
Cafe Cabin
Don't B Latte
Traffic Brews
Stimulatte

P.S. I thought "Joe 2 Go" was rather good.

[identity profile] tdjohnsn.livejournal.com 2005-01-19 10:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I think they are best with zero quality control. It is too much work otherwise!

I liked "Joe 2 Go" too. Chip thought of a lot of good ones.

Welcome! Another Seattlite here. :-)

I was going to suggest Java Jive, but that's a real name for the infamous teapot down on Tacoma's South Tacoma Way that's been around since the 30's and I think is still going strong.

Anyway, let me see... (can't guarentee quality either)

java bean

Hot Java

expresso yourself

HTH.

Thank you. Those are fun!
