How to Create Your Own Camping Group Name
Rather than choosing a name from our list, you might prefer to get together with your camping group and create a name that’s personal to you.
Keep the following tips in mind when creating your own camping group name:
- Match the vibe of your group. Do you camp to relax and get away from your hectic everyday life, or are you the type who seeks grand outdoor adventures? Your camping group name should reflect the way that your group camps, and why. A rustic camping group that hikes into the woods and ditches electricity will need a much more rugged name than one that enjoys leisurely stays at RV parks.
- Get inspiration from camping activities. Camping isn’t just pitching a tent or parking your RV — there are a lot of other activities you’ll do on even the most relaxed camping trips, such as cooking over the fire or going on hikes. Think of the activities you’ve done in the past or plan to do on your next trip. You may come across a word or phrase that would make a perfect group name.
- Use nature-related terminology. Take a word related to camping or nature and use it as the base of your new group name. For a more personal touch, you can take one of these words and combine it with a favorite place, camp meal, or another descriptor. For example, if you camp near a lake, you might name your group “[Name] Lake Guppies,” combining your favorite place with a type of fish. If your group has camped in the same area for many years, you might even be able to pass the group name on to future generations!
- List the things you love about camping. Why do you love to camp? Create a list of reasons. Maybe it’s starting your morning with coffee in a tin cup, staying up late for campfires, or temporarily giving up modern technologies. You may even find inspiration from our list above; for example, if your last name is Smith and you like our Off the Grid name, you can create Off the Grid With the Smiths or The Smiths Off the Grid.
