I got to thinking, What would I name a book club? and after a bit of brainstorming I realised that I have a real trouble naming things without using puns. Especially with literature, my mind always tries to find the quirky, funny title for things. Bellow, there are 50+ book club names you can feel free to use: for books you read with boozy companions, for feminist book clubs, your local library book club…I also added a few ideas you can adopt when creating a themed or more specific book club. Don’t forget the most important, though: whatever name you choose, reading together is meant to be fun, and the book club members make the rules of the club. You can also find a printable graphic at the end of this post!
Boozy Book Club Names
You’ve got a group of friends who love both reading and drinking, so you decide to make the best of this combination. Naming the club can go from a general name, to the more specific drinking habits of the group.
Badass Club Names
Feeling that reading is the most badass thing you can do? Well, you are absolutely right! Here are a few of the names I’d chosen for the most badass of book clubs:
Feminist Club Names
Feminism is still seen by some people (who certainly do not live in 2020) as a dirty word, and we must strive to change that. Offering our time and attention to the wonderful women writers out there is one great way to do fight for equality. Of course, you can easily opt to name your feminist book club with the name of your favourite feminist author, like Maya Angelou Book Club. Simple, and easy, and straight to the point.
Cheesy Book Club Names
Well, we can argue that most of the names I came up with so far could fit into this category, but I went the extra mile just for you. There’s also a high chance I misunderstood the request and I really was asked for cheese-lovers book club names, so here are a few extra to cover all your needs: (Let’s pretend I never wrote these.)
Library Book Club Names
Starting a book club in your town’s library? Here are a few ideas.
Children Book Club Names
There are a few formulas to come up with the perfect book club name, and they are, of course, a personal choice, based on personal preferences.
