1500+ Food Blog Name Ideas for Every Niche

Picking a name for your food blog is a challenging task, and it’s probably not as exciting to you as creating foodie content.

You only have one chance to get it right, and just when you think you have found something, you realize the domain has been taken, or another prominent food blogger already has the Instagram username registered.

You’re probably far more concerned with picking blog topics, creating epic content, figuring out how to grow your blog traffic, and growing your audience. That’s why we generated over 1500 food blog name ideas to inspire you.

As you might imagine, it might take quite a while to scroll through hundreds of name ideas, so we created a searchable dashboard of categorized names here. Just use the filters to zero in on your niche! If you don’t like a blog name on the list, consider swapping out a component from another name that you like better.

How do I find a catchy name for my food blog?

“What’s in a name,” you ask. A lot! Your food blog name goes a long way to determine how people discover and interact with your blog and overall online brand. Say you name your blog “DIY Healthy Meals” but end up writing about Mediterranean dishes; there’s a huge disconnect there. You’ll attract the wrong audience and potentially hurt your brand. 

But I can do a rebrand down the road!” Yes, you can. But that comes at a huge cost — not just money-wise, but in terms of the time spent building your brand visibility from near-scratch. 

So, instead of naming your blog the first thing that comes to mind and doing a 180 a few months or years down the road, spare a moment for these questions as you name your blog. 

  1. Who is your target audience? 

What kind of people do you expect to read your blog? Are they seasoned cooks, beginners, health-conscious eaters, or food adventurers? Knowing your audience and niche will help you craft a name that resonates with them. 

For example, if your blog is focused on quick, healthy meals for busy professionals, a name that hints at speed and wellness (e.g., “Swift Eats” or “Quick & Nourished”) would be more appealing. 

  1. How do you hope to stand out? 

Your blog name should hint at what makes your content unique and different from the thousand and one food blogs out there. The more you stand out, the easier it becomes to attract and convince the right audience that resonates with your style. 

Let’s say your blog is all about a satirical play on food. In that case, a whimsical or playful name would be fitting. On the other hand, if you’re leaning toward an 18th-century style, sophisticated tone — maybe focusing on fine dining or food culture — a more refined name could align better (e.g., “The Epicure’s Table” or “Gastronome’s Journal”).

  1. What’s the name’s SEO potential?  

SEO (search engine optimization) refers to different tactics that help your content get found online. One way to boost your blog’s SEO visibility is to include relevant keywords in your content, including your blog name. 

Words and phrases like “recipe,” “kitchen,” “healthy eating,” or “gourmet” could help your content appear high in searches related to food content. So, instead of naming your blog something abstract like “Faith’s Favorites,” consider something more descriptive like “Easy Meals for Kids” or “Mum’s Quick Recipes.” 

However, don’t be overly generic; balance is key, as a name that’s too SEO-focused can lack personality and uniqueness.

  1. How do you plan to scale? 

Your food blog name should accommodate your growth. It should allow you to evolve your content approach and focus without starting from scratch. While it’s natural to want to specialize (and we talk about niching A LOT), choose a name that won’t box you into a single theme if you decide to expand. 

For instance, a blog called “The Vegan Soup” would limit you if you wanted to branch into other vegan recipes later. Instead, a name like “Green Spoon Diaries” or “Veggie Venture” might allow for more flexibility if you change directions in the future. 

  1. Is the blog name available? 

Once you’ve whittled down your options, verify that your top choices are available as a website domain (ideally with a “.com” extension). A unique, available domain name helps with brand recognition, makes your blog easier to locate, and protects you from future trademark issues. You can use sites like GoDaddy or Namecheap to search for available domains quickly.

You also need to check if the name is available on social media for brand consistency and to make it easier for your audience to find you. If the exact name isn’t available, you may need to consider a variation or even rethink your choice to ensure your brand’s identity is unified across platforms.
