I'm thinking about starting a blog that is a really honest look at what it is like to work in IB/finance (kind of like zerohedge, but also including the good, bad, & ugly of the reality of working in banking) but am struggling to decide on a name. A few of my ideas are...
Red Pill
The Hookup
Golden Parachute
The Collar
The Grind
Bullish
Curious to hear some feedback.

“Wall Street Oasis”
Musings from the 'pen
Just use a normal name, like “the reality about ibanking”, “daily recap of an ibanker”, don’t use those vague metaphorical names, they are so affected and too dramatic
I second this - it’s easier to remember something if the name directly describes the product and will help with SEO as you gain traction. Although, a name that’s a bit catchier, as opposed to naming it exactly what it is, could make it more appealing.
To get the ball rolling:
Banking, Bluntly
Banking on Banking
Banking Bank
Bank This
The Banker Diaries
Bank Me Harder
