Are you searching for the ideal name to make your spa business stand out?
Well, you’ve come to the right place!
Your spa’s name is crucial for your brand identity. It’s the first thing potential clients notice, impacting their perception and decision to book a treatment. A well-chosen name can significantly enhance your spa’s growth and success.
I’ve compiled a collection of spa and wellness center name ideas to help you on your naming journey.
Before we start, I want to highlight a couple of crucial resources to keep in mind.

Practical Checks
In my naming guide PDF, you’ll find a checklist to choose a strong, memorable name. If you’re short on time, here are two vital points to remember.
Avoiding Legal Troubles
Check if another business has trademarked your name. You can quickly search the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database or its equivalent in your country.
Conduct a thorough search on Google for your desired spa name to check if it’s already in use.
Securing Your Online Presence
It is crucial to have a website and email address that reflects your brand. With many businesses online, finding an available domain name can be tricky. Consider adding your city name or keywords like “spa,” “wellness,” or “retreat” after your brand name. Namecheap is a helpful tool for checking domain availability.
List of Name Ideas
Given this is such a long list, I recommend you use the page navigation to jump between different categories.
Unique Names
A great way to develop your unique spa name is to consider what you offer in the salon. What are your hero services, and do you have something on your service menu that is different from other spas? This can be a good angle when identifying a unique spa name.
If your spa salon offers similar services to other spas, you can turn to your history. I’m sure there are good reasons why you started your spa in the first place. What’s your mission? Where do you come from?

Humor is powerful. It drives emotion. And we tend to remember things that we associate with an emotion better.

Why do people visit your spa?
It’s most likely not only because of the great services you provide. It’s likely that it also has something to do with the relaxing spa experience you bring. Employing this sense of relaxation in your spa name helps you bring that calm feeling across all touchpoints with your clients.

Classy Names
How you come up with a premium name for a brand like yours differs from traditional brands. For starters, a luxury brand is never launched. It exists because of a reason. Because of something that happened in the past.
Just think of any luxury brand that you like. I’m pretty sure that the name either represents the founder of the brand or another reason why the brand exists. Chanel, Hugo Boss, Prada, and Hermes all share this.
- Luxe Escape
- Serenity Spa
- Royal Spa
- Enchanted Spa
- Glory Spa
- Essence
- Spa Silver Cloud
- Premiere Spa
- Grand Retreat
- Crown Spa
- Glamour Spa
- Elite Retreat
- Luxe Spa
- Crystal Spa
- Illume Spa
- Spa Aurora
- Flora Spa
- Unicure Spa
- The One Spa
- Bon Spa
- Tiger Spa
- Opal Spa
- Nobel Spa
- Solitude Spa
- Platinum Spa
- Feather Spa
- Nina & Nosh (founders names)
Medical Spa Names
Good med spa names often differ from wellness spa names used by day spas. Med spas provide sophisticated treatments and services for skin conditions, while Day Spas (typically) focus on massage treatments, manicures, pedicures, and facials.
Services offered at a medical spa typically require a licensed esthetician or therapist. New clients are, therefore, often more concerned with the credibility of the medical spa than a day spa. If you run a medispa, it’s best to use words in the names that sound credible. Avoid funny spa names that are better fitted as wellness spa names.
Tip: Check out my comprehensive review of the best medical spa software.
