Brand, jar and funny names for pickles
Generate pickle names for a pickle brand, a jar label or a pickle character: The Pickle Crock, Garlic Dill Thrill and Hot Honey Spears for the shelf, Sir Dill-a-Lot, Gherkin McBrine and Dilly of a Pickle for laughs.
About pickle names
This list is split roughly in half. One half is for people who sell or gift pickles: brand names for a business or a farmers market stall, and jar names for a single recipe. The other half is for fun: names for a pickle mascot, plush or character, and puns for a sign or a label.
The shelf names follow the way pickles are described. Classic deli styles are named for the cure, from half sours, which spend only a short time in salt brine and stay bright green, to full sours. Others are named for the cut (spears, chips, halves) or the seasoning, as in Double Garlic Spears. Sweet styles center on bread and butter chips, and hot ones state their heat, from Mild Mannered Dills to Carolina Reaper Halves. A smaller group covers other pickled and fermented goods: okra, beets, onions, giardiniera, kraut and kimchi-style jars.
The funny half runs from titled characters (Baron von Brine, Professor Pucker) to plush-sized names like Nubbins and Lil Gherk, then wordplay on dill, brine, gherkin, spear and crunch. The puns are varied on purpose, so no single joke carries the list.
How to choose pickle names
- For a jar label, put the style before the joke. Shoppers scan for dill, bread and butter, or spicy first, so Garlic Dill Thrill works harder than a pun that hides what is inside.
- Pick a brand name that still fits when you add a second product. Crock & Barrel or Salt & Snap can sit on okra, beets and kraut; a name with 'dill' in it cannot.
- Name the heat honestly. Slow Burn Spears and Five Alarm Spears set different expectations, and a returning customer remembers which one was right.
- For a mascot or plush, short and bouncy wins: Nubbins, Gherkie, Pip the Pickle. Save long titles such as Lord Picklington for a character with a backstory.
- Before you print labels, search the name in your state's business registry and on the big online marketplaces. Pickle puns are popular and someone may already be using yours.
Frequently asked questions
What are some funny pickle names?
For a character try Sir Dill-a-Lot, Gherkin McBrine, Picklesworth, Count Brinula or Crunchy McCrisp. For a pun name try Dilly of a Pickle, Gherkin 9 to 5, Rise and Brine or Spear of the Moment.
What is a good name for a pickle business?
Names that describe the craft travel well: The Pickle Crock, Brine & Vine, Crunch Time Pickle Co., Half Sour Provisions and Time & Salt Picklery are in the list. Farm-stand names such as Red Barn Pickles or Canning Day Pickles suit a market stall.
What is the difference between half sour and full sour pickles?
Both are cured in salt brine rather than vinegar. A half sour is pulled early, so it stays crisp, bright green and mild, while a full sour ferments longer and turns olive green and tangy. Names like Overnight Half Sours and Bronx Full Sours use the terms that way.
Does the list cover pickled foods other than cucumbers?
Yes, in one smaller group: Okie Dokie Okra, Dilly Beans, Ruby Beet Pickles, Pink Onion Jar, Hot Giardiniera, Caraway Sauerkraut and Kimchi-Style Cucumbers, among others. They are useful if your stall sells more than one thing.
