    Online men's magazine (fitness, sex, money, cars, tech toys, etc)...

    Meniac - meniac.com

    or

    Trend Spike - trendspike.com

    and why?

    trendspike.com is more aristocratic , meniac.com is shorter but more relates to fun stuff.

    Meniac - is easier to remember, it's more catchy and it seems to relate more to the subject matter.

    I agree that Meniac is shorter and possibly easier to remember, but I'm not sure if the name goes along with all the topics that the site will cover.

    Meniac fits perfectly for topics like video games, etc, but it's hard to imagine Meniac when thinking about more serious articles, like investing, relationships, etc.

    The personality of the articles will be similar to that of Men's Health (the publication).

    On the flip side, Trend Spike is a bit long, and it's two words rather than one. Some people have a hard time remembering it. So that may stunt growth in the long run (not sure).

    lol im going to go against the grain and say Trendspike....and here is why

    Meniac is quite a nice name, but if you see it in a hurry then it looks too close to maniac...people might try maniac.com and see that it isnt what they were looking for and go on about their travels, and the same deal if people are told about it by their friends. Also agree with JABacchetta that its hard to imagine the name being applied to serious articles. If its a NUTS type men's mag where you have pictures of cars exploding etc then its a pretty decent name.
