I like Great Adventures. Little hands and feet seems too ordinary and done. the others almost seem intimidating as this is a daycare/preschool. The names remind me of a prep school or private academy or something.

Yeah we kind of want to focus on being a prep school, but yeah I can see what youre saying. I can always change the ending part and just keep the actual name, We will see lol just can't decideI like Great Adventures.

I agree. I also like Cornerstone but I feel that it is too long. I'd go with Cornerstone Early Learning Center.(and just a note- if you go with the Eagles one you need an apostrophe in there.)
MamaBearCanada 04:35 AM 09-02-2013
I went on & voted for Cornerstone

I kinda disagree. "Center" sounds too boring/conventional and cold to me (IMHO). Academy just means a place of learning (usually a school) but it doesn't have to mean a snooty private school or that they only have to focus on 'school' academics (can include life skills and safety lessons), so if you are doing a preschool program it fits better. Institute/institution can work too but then people might think it sounds like a prison or mental health ward (unless its phrased 'institute of learning'). Tech is sometimes also used for school names but I think people would think you let them watch TV or use IPads/computers all day.I voted for the first but ideally would change academy to center
Or if you are doing a preschool and a daycare you can have a name for the actual main daycare business and then for the preschool program have a different name (that's what I plan on doing).
EXAMPLE: "Great Adventures Daycare" (main business) Featuring "River of Life Academy" (Preschool)
Those two actually go great together.

I voted for Cornerstone. - If you are doing a christian preschool, I think it's a really solid name.
MotherNature 04:31 AM 09-03-2013
I picked Cornerstone as well.

I voted! Adventures

I voted Cornerstone as well. That name sounds professional and like a school. I also liked the Adventures name too. I guess it depends on how much of a "school" you want it to sound like.

I like/voted cornerstone.
In my are there are multiple "great adventures" centers/daycares (slightly different, like "great adventure kids learning center," "adventures unlimited" and "one great adventure daycare" and just a few) so its not my favorite.
