Help me name a Burning Man theme camp.

August 10, 2015 6:36 PM

I'm looking to put together a theme camp for a regional Burning Man. The camp is going to be centered around matchmaking; people that attend the burn and are interested can give us information and we will try to pair them with other attendees that submit information. However, I'm having trouble coming up with a good name for our camp. Any help? I've seen this done at a burn before, but I remember the name of the camp being underwhelming and I want to do better. Thanks!

Too obvious, perhaps, but: 'Feel the Burn'?

I came in here to say The Match Stick, but I think The Match Box from calgirl above is better.

Camp Shminder.

Because, y'know, Tinder, Shminder.

Kindling?

Or maybe the sound when the tinder and kindling go up in a great flaming ball...

Fwoomf!

Best answer: Playa With Matches, or just Playing With Matches - which is straight from the "Matchmaker" lyrics in Fiddler On The Roof - "Playing with matches, a girl can get burned". "Matchbox" above is also great, and you'll only have to keep the camp going for 5 more years to be able to call the camp "Match Box '20".
