How exactly does one name a typeface?

:icongraphiqual:

So, I have one month left of my glorious post-HSC holidays, and I thought I'd spend it by trying to design my first typeface. I've just finished drawing all the lower case and it occurred to me that I have to name this thing.

How the heck do you name a typeface?!

So... for those reading this, what's your favourite font NAME?
And if there are any typeface designers out there, how do you go about naming your fonts?

Wow dear, it's pretty amazing you already picked up such huge interest in typography at such young age (given that I still had no idea what the heck it was when I was your age *shamed* ;A; ) Oh and looking at your gallery...I won't be flattering saying that a majority of your work can top the so-called designer heads in my uni xD
Well all I can say is....please keep it up! You definitely are gonna go far :") You're already making good innovative stuffs out of things that already been there, so I believe you will one day soon enough find your own signature style *cheers for you*
Oh btw you really are a super source of motivation for me to try harder and get better as well :"> I'm still currently struggling in between styles and not yet focused enough on one certain thing ^^;

Am I allowed to inspire/challenge you?
I had a thought for a cool typography work, with the words "Story under construction". I also know that I FAIL at art, unlike you. I just wanted to pose it to you in case you felt like being inspired, or you thought it was a cool idea :)

hmmm that sounds sorta cool, but I don't really get it lol. "Story under construction"?

Umm... I sort of imagined small construction-worker looking people running around building cities and forests and mountains out of words, if that helps.
When's the comp happening?
