The
brand name of this new alarm clock is “EyeLight.” This brand name combines the
special characteristics of this clock and its working principles. The
differentiated characteristic of this clock is that it is connected with the eyeshade to wake people up, instead of
using the traditional noise. And its working principle is to arouse people’s
awareness of the time by the light and heat of the eyeshade. A brand name aims
at identifying the seller’s products and differentiating the products from
competitors’ products (Lamb 180). Thus, the name “EyeLight” stresses the
special characteristic of this alarm clock, which is to wake people by the
light on eyes. Thus, if combining the
word “eye” and the word “light” together, customers could easily understand the
advantage of this alarm clock. Meanwhile, the “EyeLight” is based on the word
“eyeshade.” Eyeshade is the main working part of this alarm clock, as well as
the creative part of this clock. When people’s eyes meet shade, they fall
asleep. This is the meaning of the name
“eyeshade.” However, when people’s eyes meet the light, it is time to wake up.
This brand name takes the name “eyeshade” as a reference and combines the
working principle of this clock. Also, light is the opposite side of shade, which makes this name easy to remember
and understand. The name “EyeLight” explains the main working principle of this
alarm clock. When people wear the eyeshade, they fall asleep. And when the
eyeshade glows to wake people, the shade becomes the light and “eyeshade”
becomes “eyelight.” Then people will be
woken up by this alarm clock.
