Hey guys,

Got a friend who's been shooting portraits for a few years. It's been family friendly and safe so far but he's been asked to shoot several models. These shoots will include implied nudity, nudity, boudoir, etc. He doesn't want his real FB page to be tagged in any photos and have anyone know it was from him. He'd like to create a secondary FB/IG account for these types of photos. He needs help thinking of a name. His initials are DD. Maybe use something like that?

I've mentioned a few ideas such as DareDevil, Daydreamer, D2, etc.

Any other ideas?

I think, given the nature of his subject matter, "DD" will do just fine as it is.


"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

That was going to be my suggestion. Double D Photography.

Haha, I actually told him Double D photography but he said that may limit his shoots to only girls with huge... personalities...

Any other ideas?

'D4Digital' - as in 'D is for Digital (photography)', and of course his initial also being 'D' means that it also stands for 'D(name) is for Digital (photography)'.

The 'is for' can mean either he stands for that (his name is synonymous with digital photography), or alternatively 'is for' can simply mean he 'likes' it. So, D(name) is synonymous with digital photography, or D(name) likes digital photography.

With such a concept, whichever interpretation of 'D4Digital' someone uses to tell him the concept is rubbish, he can counter by claiming it actually means the alternative!

Sorry, I forgot to add, that name lends itself to being abbreviated as 'D4D', which is handy for incorporating into a logo design.

Great suggestion! I'll definitely let him know about it!

Keep the suggestions coming in guys! Good stuff so far!

As soon as I saw the 'DD', the first thing that came to mind was Daredevil (as in the comic book character and movie with Ben Affleck).

That's interesting, I actually just suggested to him "Dare to Dream" photography. sort of a mix of both of your suggestions.

Keep it coming guys. Any others?
