Wracking my brain for a zine/blog title. I am terrible at this sort of thing but was trying to link the idea to aspects of Levenshulme in some way. Initial ideas included;
The Zine with no Name (a play on 'the street with no name')
Levy Lyve (Levy Life but an anagram of Levy)
Levyzine
Levenzoom (taken from an internet page explaining how to pronounec Levenshulme)
Levenzine
Other potential areas for exploration;
SJ875945 (the OS Map reference)
M19 (postcode. But also the name of a bar in Levenshulme)
1909 (the year Levenshulme became part of Manchester)
53.447°N 2.187°W (the co-ordinates)
I liked the idea of just using numbers, but realised that would be too obscure - people would not pick up the zine and recognise something in the title. Many of the text titles I came up with felt quite cheesy.
Sara suggested a three-letter name, inspired by a post on Facebook where Levenshulme residents were jokingly inventing three-letter names for shops in the area. Given that much of the later project was built upon this Facebook group (finding subjects, getting information about the area etc) it seemed fitting that the inspiration for the title would also come from here.
LVY
(a shortened version of 'Levy', the affectionate name for the area)
LEV
(the first three letters, but also the train station reference)
LVE
(using letters from the name, this also makes me think of 'live' and 'love')
LVS
(the first letter of each syllable of the name)
After much consideration, I have decided on LVE as the title, with the strapline of 'Live. Love. Lev'
