# Token Naming

**Menu Prompt**: 🏷️ **Token Naming Guidelines**

**Detailed Instructions**:

1. Choose a name that clearly represents your token's purpose or identity.
2. Use only letters and spaces in your token name.
3. **Avoid special characters (e.g., @, #, $, %, &, etc.) as they can cause issues with smart contract deployment and exchange listings.**
4. Consider the following when choosing a name: 

* Memorability: Is it easy for users to remember?
* Uniqueness: Does it stand out from existing tokens?
* Relevance: Does it reflect your project's goals or theme?

5. Examples of good token names: "Decentralised Finance Token", "Green Energy Coin", "Sporty Pepe"
