50 Awesome Travel Blog Name Ideas
50 77 Awesome Travel Blog Name Ideas
When I was getting ready to launch my travel blog, I had a really tough time picking a name for the blog. In reality, the name of a travel blog isn’t as important as you might think. It isn’t as important as quality writing, a well-designed site, a good brand, and a lot of content. However, your name is still a big piece of the puzzle, and should be something you like and can live with. To come up with my blog’s name, I did an exercise to come up with as many awesome travel blog names as possible and then slowly narrowed it down to my current name. I thought I would share this list with any future travel bloggers who are currently brainstorming for a name. Not all of these were from my original list, as I have added more since, so go ahead and use this list as a starting point for your own brainstorming.
UPDATE: Feel free to use any of these names for your own travel blog. People have been emailing me a lot asking if they can use a name on the list. You don’t need my permission to use any of these names since I don’t own any of them. I also don’t own any of the domain names, so if it’s already taken there isn’t anything I can do. Good luck in your search!
1. Out of the Office – For a former cubicle worker who wants to quit and to put up an indefinite email out of office notification.
2. Binge Travelers – BingeTravelers.com is available too, which is a great domain.
3. Tweet Pray Love – The digital version of famous book/movie. Thanks to @AndyMonfre for this one!

5. Forks In The Road – For a traveler who loves food and decisions!
6. Corners of the World – This is a good domain name that is available: CornersoftheWorld.com
7. Navigatio – No, I didn’t forget the N, Navigatio is actually Latin for Voyage.

20. The Long and Winding – One of my favorite Beatles songs.

33. Like Nothing I’ve Seen – A blog about seeing and experiencing new, exotic adventures.
34. Salt of the Earth – This sounds a bit Biblical, but that’s because it is a Bible phrase. However, it can still apply the our natural world. Domain available: SaltoftheEarth.com
35. Off the Face – Basically letting people know you’ve fallen(jumped) off the face of the Earth.
36. Reset ReBoot Record – Someone who left home to get a fresh start, and is recording the progress in the blog. You could do a cool logo with the three R’s.

Love this!
Some times I feel like I should title something I write “So This is How I Die,” not so much as a statement, but more as a realization. I’m not sure I can be truly successful at conveying the correct intonation, however.
Nice! I added it to the list.
Hi, Dan.
Just wanted to let you know I’ve claimed “Off the Face”.
My blog is in the works !!
I’m not on Facebook, so I hope this comments is ok
Robyn, Canada
For travel/yoga blogs:
WanderingOmies.com – play on ‘homies’ with a yoga spin – ‘OM’
or
TheTravelingYogis.com
Added! Thanks.
Hey, just wanted to let you know I used your name for my blog. but IT’S STILL UNDER CONSTRUCTION.
Thanks so much for all the great ideas. I was so stuck.
Nice! I just updated the list with a link to your site. Good luck!
Going to use LikeNothingIveSeen.com. Working on the site now.
Thanks Natasha! I updated the list to included that name as taken.
Hi,
this is simply awesome. I would like use Losing Sight of the Shore for my travel blog
Thanks a millions
Sounds good! I updated the page. This is also one of my favorites!
It is simply awesome. I would like to take losing sight of shore.
Thanks
Actually, can I change that to No Particular Place to Go. Sorry about that and thanks!
Updated! Thanks!
Hey I grabbed Bloggers without Borders! What a GREAT LIST! Keep it up
Thanks Mel! I updated the list.
Thanks! great list
I’m going to use miles and smiles away
not .com for now, just as a wordpress url.
Very Creative!!!!
Can I take number 8??
Of course! Let me know when your site is up and I will update the article.
The website is up, still working on the details though! thanks so much
I’m making a blog to host some of my travel writing stories and was thinking of using “Hostel Takeover” or “So This is How I Die”. Would that be ok with you guys and do you know if anyone has taken either of these?
They are both free as far as we know, go for either. Thanks for reading!

Fascinating, well written and well thought of blog, guys! Thanks for connecting with us on Twitter! Keep up the great work and travel safe!
Thanks for the list
It helped me brainstorm the name for mine. Here’s what else came out of that brainstorming (not sure if they’re still available but sometimes a lot of input is all it takes to get creative):
nowhere in particular
gypsy soul
riding the waves
smells like gypsy
gypsy rhapsody
gone traveling
life in a bag
hugging the road
[yourname] pilgrim
[yourname] supertramp
one way ticket
Thanks for the additional names Tina! I’ll add them to the list.
This post also really helped me with the brainstorming process. I ultimately decided on Wild Wanderess, but I came up with some others and wanted to share. All of them are currently available.
The Runaway Girl
Gypsy Girl Travels
The Simple Sojourn
Rooftops and Flipflops
Edge of the Sand
The Lost Gurl
Gutsy Girl Travel
Thanks! I added them to the list.
Hey this is an awesome list! I am using “Tweet Pray Love” if that’s okay!
Of course. Send a link and I can add that as well. Thanks!
Thank you for an inspiring post! Was Tray Tables & Seat Backs taken? I won’t be using it as a domain, just a site title
http://laurkana.wordpress.com/
Lauren, I know one other blogger had said they were going to be using this name, but if you aren’t using the domain, I don’t seen any issues with you also using it as a site title. Good luck!
I have started a travel blog called “The Binge Travellers” thanks to your post. Although it is the british spelling, if someone tried the same and used the american spelling, it will easily be confused with my travel blog. So far, I have been very lucky since there are no sites under similar versions of this name (eg Binge Traveller/Traveler).
Thank you very much for this post. In return I want to suggest another title to fill in the list:
On/With a broken compass
The website is under the blogspot domain but will be changing to http://www.the bingetravellers.com in a month or two. Now it’s http://www.thebingetravellers.blogspot.com
That was my favorite one! I’m glad someone will be finally using it. Good luck!
I was looking through your names, and I have #62 on the reader added list.
Niki
Thanks Niki. I updated the article!
Hey I just took Miles and Smiles Away!
Thank you so much!
Could you post a link to your blog once it’s up. Then I’ll update the article. Thanks! -Dan
Thank you for the great ideas. I’m still brainstorming…but have a suggestion that is not really me…but might be someone else. Tellus Supertramp
Thank you for the great idea! Text me later has already been taken, however we have settled with textmelaterxo. Our blog is a travel blog, and we will be starting with a post about our upcoming volunteering experience in Sri Lanka! Thank you!
Thanks guys, I updated the list!
I love Humofthe earth and Each city a Rhapsody. Can’t decide!? I love the sound of it (musical inclination) can you people suggest more sound names albeit shorter?
I am looking to start an on the road musical travel blog. You know events, people, places, food, music and general storytelling.
Hei Dan,
Can I use “Out of the office” for my blog?
Thanks,
Linda
Yes. Just post a link to the site once it’s up and I’ll update the list. Thanks! – Dan
Hi, thanks for the idea I took one big rock. Its awesome.
Be sure to post a link to the site on here once it’s up and I’ll update the list. Thanks! – Dan
I’ll be grabbing navigatio as a wordpress url for now but I’m hoping to eventually have the .ca as well. A fantastic list.
Thanks for the inspo! Any recommendations on what to do if the url for the name you want is available, but some of the social media handles are taken? Trying to come up with a travel blog name that is completely available on all platforms but I’m stuck!
I had that issue with a couple of social media sites. I usually added the word “travel” to the end of the handle. For example, on YouTube, I’m ThisWorldRocksTravel. If “travel” is too long, you can always try adding or removing the word “the” at the beginning of some names, as well as the word “blog” at the end. There are a lot of small words to end to the beginning and end that seem natural.
I’m pretty stumped trying to name my blog. I have a few written down like this one for instance. The Long and Dusty Road of Travel. That may be too long of a name
I totally stole “One Big Rock!” Thanks for the awesome idea!
You’re welcome! Good luck!
I’m creating a personal travel blog that has a Phoneography-course on the side for those who’d like to learn how to take great photos with their smartphones on the road. I’ve been trying to come up with a fitting travel/photography-related name for days but nothing feels right! Maybe I should brand myself as “The Travel Phoneographer” or something. Great list though! Managed to brainstorm a little
I got the name “Travel Like a Boss” for my blog. I’ve posted some of my travels on it. Check it out.
Could I take rooftops and flipflops?
Thanks for the ideas
It’s all yours! Good luck!

Thanks for your help, I’ll make sure to mention and link to your site.
Thanks for the list of wonderful blog names. Could I use either corners of the world or every corner a story. Thanks.

“Salt Of The Earth”
I would like this domain do be mine! Haha My wifi is glitch in right now, but I will definitely start as soon as possible. Reserve please!??
Great list. Is there a reason why you dont include numbers in any of the names? I have a 4 in ours because there is four of us and the world is for families. Is that bad?
Thanks for the list! This is something I’ve wanted to do for a while but never really got around to so I appreciate all the inspiration I can get. If Corners of the World is still available, I’d love to take it so I can get started!

I love this – so many great ideas….
I’m currently trying to think of a new name for my blog. It’s currently called La Vida Lima, as I’m living in Lima, Peru, but I don’t want it to be geographically bound when I leave Lima. It’s still very new, so I’m going to change it.
