Choosing a name for a child or a pet can turn into a major task. So much thought goes into selecting the right name, even for things or entities, like a band, a business or a blog. A fictional writer will agonize over what to name their protagonist. The name needs to make sense and be real for the situation in order for the reader to connect with the character. Shakespeare's Juliet asked, "What's in a name? That which we call a rose, by any other name would smell as sweet."
I picked Cute Shops for the name of this blog for three reasons. When I shop with my sister-in-law, Barb, we seem to forget all adjectives in the English vocabulary. The only word that comes out is "cute". My brother-in-law, Dave, pointed that out to us and likes to chime in for the fun of it. The second reason is because many of our customers who shop at the tea shop ask if there are "any more cute shops in the area". I guess other people use that word, too.
The third reason is because we wanted this blog to be available for those searching online for "cute shops" when they are planning an itinerary. So, Juliet, a name is important, especially when it come to search engine positioning.
Let me know if you have any cute shops that you would like posted. The pic on this post was taken by Caroline Jones- a cute shop in Liverpool, England.

Bonjour! Cutes Shops Blog was thrilled to find Carla Vizzi's shop in the Marias area of Paris. She says her shop is a place to rediscover the Art of Living in the 18th-century around the daily activities of the Boudoir. Carla works with craftsmen who recreate 18th century art and she also sells both antiques and newly created classical elements that may have been found in Marie Antoinette's boudoir. Commission portraits of your favorite dog, in an 18th century spirit, are but one of the many possibilities of artwork she can also create for you. So, lovers of baroque, head for the Marias and step into a exploration of intimate Parisian life at Le Boudoir et sa Philosophie.
