Find a list of creative, fun, funny, and punny names for your pizza restaurant.

Do you know anyone who doesn't love pizza? I don't! I can eat that stuff multiple days a week, even if it has all the same toppings on it! Pizza is like a staple in my diet and in many of those around us. If you are passionate about pies and have the money and proper qualifications to go into business, then you should be opening a pizza shop!

Not only will you have an unlimited amount of pizza for you, your family, and even your friends, but people will be able to taste your passion for pizza and want to come back for more!

If you have a passion for pizza, you might dream of opening a pizzeria—but what will you name it?

Pizzeria and Pizza Shop Names

When it comes to pizza shop names, all the good ones are taken (kidding)! There are so many different ways that you can name a pizza shop—and so many puns that you can use to make your name memorable.

Pizza shop names should say that you are a pizza parlor, what kinds of food you serve (if something other than just pizza), and even your pizza style if it applies to your business. Pizza shop names are often fun to say, while still sounding like a professional establishment people would want to order from.

Here's the complete list of sample pizzeria and pizza shop names. I hope you find one to suit your slice!

How to Name Your Business

Starting a Pizza Shop

Anytime you are dealing with food, the Health Department will be involved. They are a good place to contact first and may even be able to point you in other directions that you need to go.

Another point of contact would be the state's licensing board. They will advise you if you require any state licensing to get into business and likely tell you that you need to register your business with the state's Department of Corporations (which will require you to have your business name chosen already). It's important to know that there are also local requirements as far as registering your business goes, so contact the county or city (or both) depending on local requirements in order to get your business tax receipt and everything all registered.

Location Is Key

Now, location is a big thing to think about, especially since you are likely to have many, many competitors who are already pretty well-established in any given area. You will want to seek out a location that is in a busy area but situated a decent distance away from other pizza establishments.

Open for Business!

Now that you've read 100+ pizza shop names, doesn't it make you want to eat some pizza? I do! Whatever name you decide to go with, start advertising your business a few weeks before it opens, handing out flyers and menus with coupons to attract some new customers.

I know, personally, that I normally don't try out a new pizza place unless there's a menu placed at my door; otherwise, I never would have known about it! Pick a good name, advertise well, and your phone will be ringing with orders in no time!

Hi Marvin!

When trying to come up with ideas, I suggest talking with family and friends for a few reasons. One of the big reasons that it's a good idea for your situation is that bar and pizzeria names are often personal, or reference local things in your area. Being that friends and family know you and your area well, they would probably be very qualified to help you figure out a name for your upcoming business. No matter what name you choose, I hope it's a huge success!
