Names for the rooms in the office - function

No company wants to compare itself with kindergarten groups, but that's not the point behind names for individual rooms in the office. However, the underlying function is the same and that is above all the overview. Particularly in large companies with several meeting rooms, it is not always easy for customers and employees to keep track of the individual rooms.

Of course, you can use numbering so that conferences take place in conference room 1 or 2, for example. The more rooms with different functions – conferences, seminars, staff meetings, etc. – are added, however, the more difficult it becomes not to mix them up. A simple and also very creative solution is to name the individual rooms.

Another point in favor is the team-building aspect. Anyone who still proudly calls themselves a Tiger Duck knows how nice it can be to have group names. This way, the individual teams in your company can name their own offices and thus creatively help to design their workplaces. Turn it into a small event and offer a prize for the winning team! When assigning names to the rooms in your office, you can and should of course set some guidelines and follow a few helpful tips and tricks.

Creative names for meeting rooms - tips & tricks for choosing

Why it is a good idea to name your office furniture is now well established. But what is the best way to go about naming them? First of all, it is advisable to look for an overarching theme. If possible, this theme should match your company. For example, you could name your rooms after important celebrities from your industry or other categories relevant to your company. It is only important to pay attention to the image that you want to convey to the outside world.

Naming your offices after the scientists from Big Bang Theory is probably more appropriate for a young tech start-up with flat hierarchies than for an internationally operating large company with branches all over the world. An overarching theme for the individual room types – i.e. a theme for meeting rooms, one for seminar rooms, etc. – but is recommended for every larger company.

As much fun as it can be for you and your employees to be creative, you must also be careful not to overshoot the mark. Creativity in all its glory, but if the names are too complex, too long or too difficult to remember, they no longer fulfill their function and should better be removed from the list. Involve your employees in any case, as their input can not only help, but also promote team spirit. Whether you do this in the form of a competition, a survey or a mind map is entirely up to you.
