FREDERICIA BRANT

FREDERICIA BRANT has the odd, compact feel of a personal or family name turned into a company label, and that gives it a little character right away. By our assessment, its strongest point is that it sounds distinctive without trying too hard. The downside is the same thing from another angle: the name says almost nothing about the actual business, so context has to do all the work. In practice it is the sort of company name that can look polished on paper and still leave you asking what line of work sits behind it. It sits closer to a private label than to a descriptive brand, and that is all the public signal really offers.
