Know-How Exchange : Taglines/Names

I’m working with a clinic that is going to focus on Asperger clients, serving young children to young adults and their families.

Asperger's (or Asperger) is a milder variant of Autistic Disorder and usually function on a higher level than others in this category. These individuals are characterized by social isolation because of impairments in social interaction and verbal and non-verbal communication. (If you want more information, let me know and I’ll add it.)

The clinic will offer comprehensive, integrated programs, providing innovative programming, personal care and attention specific to each client’s age, developmental stage, strengths, and deficits. See bottom for listing of potential services.

Some initial names that were brainstormed focuses on Aspirations because it reflects the goal to help clients reach for their very best, and it also somewhat mimics the psychology classification, “Asperger.” I’m not sure if we can use “Aspirations” in terms of trade marking. We also played with the word, “connection,” because it speaks to helping Asperger clients related to their difficulty communicating and interacting with people. In this regard, the clinic will be helping clients make "connections" on several levels, brain/behavior, interpersonal connections, professional/client, client and community resources, making connections between visual cues and meanings, repairing connections within the family. However, there’s a local agency that has a newsletter, “Autism Connections,” so I’m concerned about using this name. I’d love to hear your comments, other names, tag lines, and positioning ideas you may have. Here are some initial names:

Life Aspirations
Life-Spiration
Life-Aspiration
Aspirations, Inc.
Aspiratian
Asperation
A-spiration
AspirationS
Aspirations, Inc.
Inspiratia
Nurturation
Bloomin
Apergers Institute of Michigan or AIM

I'm not sure if we can use the following because they're trademarked:
Life Connections (Commemorative cups made of non-precious metal)
Aspirations (bathtub and shower plumbing)
Connections (teaching books)
Connections Incorporated
Trusted Connections

Here are the services I said I would list: Services will include psychological/neurological testing, social work/psychotherapy (individual, group, and family therapy and parent education), speech and language development, community integration, education/tutoring, fitness health education, vocational facilitation, occupational therapy, art therapy, music and dance movement therapy, drama therapy, recreational therapy including summer camp, and other
