Your conference room name can make all the difference in the world. Case in point: Would you rather spend 2 hours in a conference room called “Conference Room #7,” “Meeting Room B,” or “Cash & Ice Cream Giveaway Centre”?
The answer should be obvious, and yet many companies persist in simply naming their conference rooms after numbers and letters. This is a huge missed opportunity for companies to show off their personality and culture. Companies that continue to go this route may as well just name their conference rooms “Taxes & Spinach Zone” or “Intermittent Wi-Fi Area.”
A creative conference room name will make meetings more fun for clients and employees and bring some positivity to the workplace. Here are some great ways to help you get started.

Go With A Theme

One of the best ways to show the personality of any company is to create conference room names based on a theme. If your biggest and most important client sells a product for the beach, you can use that as your inspiration. Choose conference room names based on famous beaches, such as Daytona Beach, Glass Beach, or Bora Bora. Likewise, if they sell cars, get names from the types of vehicles on their lot. These can be names that include Ferarri, Mercedes, Buick, and Chrysler. Or use car models like Malibu, Bolt, and PT Crusier.

Get Inspired By Social Media

Social media is a huge space where people from all over the world can come together and chat. Let this be the inspiration for naming a conference room. Make it fun and use hashtags and other social media driven trends. These conference room names can be #coffeebreak, #Resultsdriven, or #Workinghard. Everything looks better with a hashtag in front of it, even annoying words like #moist, #synergy, and #methinks.

Choose A Name By Location

Many large companies have offices in multiple countries. These businesses can capitalize on this by naming their conference rooms after their locations. The New York team, for instance, can use famous landmarks around town, such as Carnegie Hall, The Brooklyn Bridge, or The Empire State Building. Or they can use the names of other, cooler-sounding cities such as Madrid, Sao Paulo, Reykjavík, Hydrabad, and Tel Aviv. (If the real world is too ordinary for you, there are plenty of fictitious cities with cool-sounding names to pick from, such as The Citadel, New Vegas, Cloud City, Los Angeles 2019, and Neo Tokyo).

Make It a Team Effort

Make naming your conference room a group activity by giving everyone in the office a voice. Allow your employees to get inspired and nominate a conference room name. The whole company can then vote on their favorites. This gets everyone involved and makes conference room renovation fun for the whole organization.

The Company Culture

Most companies have inside jokes or references. If your company falls into this category, then you’re one step closer to having the perfect conference room name. Does everyone in the office love movies and talk about them constantly? Use this as your starting point. Select a title from a certain genre, such as The Big Lebowski, The Money Pit, or Anchorman. If Chuck Norris is a favorite amongst the crowd, choose titles starring this actor, such as Delta Force, Delta Force 2: The Colombian Connection, and Top Dog.

Choosing the right conference room names can be a great experience and can boost office moral. Make sure to put some time and effort into choosing cool new names for company meetings.
