Anyone good at coming up with names?

I've been a busy little bee this week putting the finishing touches on my latest pdf pattern. However, this one isn't a knitting pattern, but rather a sewing pattern! I've designed a cute 1930's inspired hat and am planning on selling the pattern in my Etsy Store. However, I am having a terrible time coming up with a suitable name for the hat. After almost three days of trying to come up with a name, I've decided to ask all of you.

If you have any suggestions for a name leave me a comment on this post before the 30th of October. The creator of the name I end up using will get a free copy of the pattern (in pdf form). Thanks everyone for the help :) I'm just terrible at coming up with nifty names.

Here are some pictures of the design (which my friend Britt was kind enough to model):






The hat was loosely based on this image (from The Costumer's Manifesto)
Thanks again for your help!

That's All.

    it sure is a cloche, a typical hat was born 20 years, and used for all 30 years.......very nice in red.
    You can use the word cloche combined with feminine names typical of 30 years....
    I comes to mind Madame Cloche

    You need a fancy kind of name like Adelaide or Emmaline or something beautiful and old fashioned like the hat which is beautiful by the way :)

    The pretty red one reminds me of a cute rain hat. How about The Rainy Flapper? :)

    It reminds me of the movie Thoroughly Modern Millie ...

    I'd call it Millie or Millicent.

    LOVE it!

    What a cute hat! I love it in red. Name-making isn't my strong point though...
