Welcome to 'How Products Were Named'

Welcome and thanks for visiting! This blog will show you how everyday products that you use and have grown to love were named--from "Nike" to "McDonalds" to "Dial Soap." Every day or so we will add a few new products for you to read about and then go on to amaze your friends (or win bar bets or game shows). You can see previous product names in the archives on the right hand side of this page.

Subscribe to our daily feed and read it daily for new facts about history's great products!
