It's not a trivia question i swear.
I'm in the VERY early stages (read VERY) of putting together a business plan. I know it's not really time to start worying about a business name yet, but since that's one of the few things I can do right now, I thought i would try to get that nailed down.
So, i ask you... How would YOU pronounce my username? (Cakification)
I love the term, my Fiance uses that word to describe the state of our house after i make a cake, but since it's a made up word, i don't know if people will "get it".
Thanks in advance for your opinions.
I've taught six of my nine children to read using phonics..
Your name is pronounced:
Kak if i ( short i) kay shen
mommmachris
As a mother of a Zebedee..I feel your confusion.
It's Zeb ed e ( long e)
not Zee bee dee......oh, please.
If I saw that as a store name I wouldn't be able to pronounce it. Not because I don't know how to sound things out but because it would frustrate me... and I've got a college education. That's just my opinion on it.
I would pronounce it cake-if-fa-cation but if you're looking for feedback I think non-cake people may not get it. And sadly there is a cable series called Californication and that's what I think of when I read your name and trust me that is not what you're going for unless you want to specialize in naughty cakes
Out of context (i.e. if this post were not on cake central) I would probably pronounce it "cack - ification". You could use "Cakeification" or "Cake-ification" as your business name, with the former you could emphasize the "cake" part with a different style or overlaid graphic.
Thank you all SO very much...
Jason - that's exactly what I was wondering.. If, out of context, people would get it, i thought about Cakeification, but I dont like the look of the ei, However, now that you mention using a different font or what-not for the cake part... I think i like that.
For the person who mentioned californication.. That made me LOL.. I have been wanting to try a naughty cake one of these days, so who knows lol

That's EXACTLY what I thought.
I second (third?) the notion that I get what you're going for, but if I wasn't in cakes than it might not be that obvious.
