If you are starting a food truck, you may be focusing on details like finding a truck to rent or buy. Choosing a name should also be a top priority, as many of your choices regarding branding will flow from the business name. We have put together a list of more than 200 food truck names to help get your creative juices flowing.

Budget Branders is an independently owned and operated business that offers high-quality disposable products that can be printed with your food truck’s name and logo. In an industry where products like plastic cups and foil sandwich bags are used for almost every order, having branded promotional items is incredibly important. Reach out to our branding team today to learn more about our full line of custom disposable products.

A good food truck name should be unique to your business. Ideally, it will be relatively short, easy to remember, and will help customers remember your truck and the type of food that you serve. For example, if you serve BBQ, then your name should reference this cuisine style in some way.

A food truck name can be relatively straightforward and descriptive, like Miss Meatball for a food truck that sells meatballs. It could include alliteration to make it memorable. It could also be funny, which will not only stick in patrons’ minds, but may even help your marketing strategy.

Whatever name you choose should not be hard to spell or pronounce. It shouldn’t be too long, which will make it hard for people to remember – and for you to put it on the side of your truck, on chalkboard menus, and on branded promotional items. While you can get clever with your name, avoid anything that might have the potential to offend (unless that’s part of your brand!)

So how can you go about choosing a name for your food truck business? Grab a pen and some paper, and then follow these steps to get started:

• Think about your vision for your food truck.  What are your mission and your core values as a business owner?
• What type of food and/or drinks will you be serving? Are there any words that are commonly associated with that cuisine, such as naan or curry for Indian food?
• What type of personality and/or vibe do you want to convey? Quirky? Classic? Friendly?
• What adjectives would you use to describe your food?
• Where will your food truck primarily be located?
• Is there anything that inspired you or that is particularly important to you?

The words and phrases that you write down can serve as inspiration for your food truck name. You can also use them in a restaurant name generator. Just input keywords into the generator, and it will give you a list of options for your potential food truck name.

Once you have a list of possible names – or a top choice – the next step involves making sure that it isn’t already taken. You can do a Google search, a search through your state’s corporate database, or even search the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office’s site. Doing this is important to avoid potential legal liability, as well as to ensure that you can properly market your own brand. After all, if you choose a name that is similar to a food truck in the next town, it may create confusion and you may actually lose business.

You should also run your food truck name ideas past friends, family, and business associates. What are their gut reactions to the name? You may think that a particular name is brilliant, but someone who isn’t as close to the process may have a different reaction. Be sure to get outside opinions so that you have a better sense of how the name will come across to the general public.

Keep in mind that some of these food truck names are from real businesses. Make sure that you do a search to ensure that a name is available before you commit to anything.
