Choosing a Name & Logo: My Tool Reviews

I am working on a new business venture, I’m honestly so excited to share it all soon! But firstly, I wanted to share the messy, exciting journey. After deciding on what industry and business I am going into. I tried everything, even asking AI like ChatGPT and Gemini for ideas. They gave me options, sure, but they all felt a bit…well, like they could be for anyone. I realized a name has to tell a story, connect with people, and feel, well, right.

And then, the logo! Of course, right?

We’re living in the age of AI, so I thought, why not see what these tools can do? I dove into a bunch of them, some free, some not. If you’re like me, watching the budget and not a graphic designer, you might be tempted by Adobe Express, Logo Maker, and Canva Logo Maker. They get the job done, but sometimes the results feel a little genric.

Anyway, I wanted to share my experience with a few of them in case it helps you out! Here’s the lowdown:

Adobe Express:

• The good stuff: Super easy to use, tons of templates, lots of design elements, works for all sorts of marketing stuff, and you can even do animations!
• The not-so-good: The designs can be a bit…standard.
