Help name my Hat

[cooncatbob]

Art made me a new hat for Christmas and I've been trying to think of a name for it but every name I come up with sound dorky.
The hat is Hickory/Pecan 5 3/4 opened crown with a diamond crease.
The brim is dimensionally cut 2 3/8 front and back and 2 1/4 on the sides.
The 1 1/2 ribbon is called Lightside it's a 16 ligne dustyrose.

OK two questions that might help everyone come up with a name that suits both the hat and you:

1) What sort of thing do you plan to wear your hat to? Is it going to be for best, or a hat you wear a lot.

2) What's it like where you live? What's the climate like? Town or boonies?

1- I plan on wearing it a lot, but not when I'm working in the yard.lol
I've got quite a few e-bay hats for rough wear.
2- I live in a suburb of Sacramento, Ca.

Hmm OK. I will...put my thinking hat on.

I'm sorry. That was pathetic. But I will dedicate part of my brain to this task.

Belvedere?

My 1st car in 1977 was a 63 Plymouth Belvedere, it threw a rod less then a month after I bought it and I abandoned it. Not a name I remember fondly.lol

Maybe after I get a bunch of name I'll post a poll?

 

[Alon]

Lipento !

What about Lepanto? One of the most important battles in Western history.

Was there any significance in your picking the color, style of it?
How about "patience"? since you waited so long to open it!

 

[cooncatbob]

So far I'm liking "The Dusty Rose"

I wanted less brim then my Hoosier, Fed and my Artlite so I went with 2 3/8 dimensional 2 1/4 on the side.
I like brown and the Hoosier Chocolate so the Hickory/Pecan seems like a color that can go with a lot of things.
I like non traditional ribbon treatment which is why I like Art's work so much. I told him I was looking for something with some good contrast like on the Hoosier.
I liked the diamond crease on the Artlite so I chose it, besides a lot of my other hats have center creases.

Looks like putting all that together turned out to be a "Capital Idea!"

OK, maybe a capital idea, but perhaps that's not the best name for a hat. I blame it on the Nyquil.

Cheers,

If you had ordered a porkpie from Art the name would be obvious, "Pecan Pie". Okay, I'll just crawl back under my rock and keep quiet...:eusa_doh:
