Your Name Here is a non-franchise, locally-owned shop located in the Frankenmuth River Place offering everything from photo frames, coffee mugs, ornaments, pens & pencils – anything except for fabric, essentially (no t-shirts) – that can be personalized for free with purchase. Their most popular items are ornaments, gifts associated with weddings and bridal parties, teachers’ gifts and personalized piggy banks.
Tasty Tidbits – Did You Know…?
- More Than Names
While the ability to purchase something with a unique name on it, or a unique spelling of a name – the Maryaynes, Miyahs and Jakobs out there – is special, Your Name Here offers more than personalization by name. For instance, one can purchase a plaque, or photo frame, and have the wedding vows they wrote to each other engraved, word for word…or send a son or daughter off to college with a pen, engraved with “I love you more than peanut butter loves jelly” or something specific, and personal, to that person.
- It’s Free
Not the item. But, the personalization is free with any purchase. There is no first seven letters free, and x amount thereafter at Your Name Here. Any wording, any amount, is free with purchase.
- Etsy?
Rather than operating a company website, Your Name Here sells items through their bricks and mortar store in Frankenmuth and on Etsy. They’ve found great success at the globally-reaching website, shipping items as far as the Netherlands and beyond.
“Your Name Here is a place you can come and get something, or give something, that you’ll be remembered by,” says Katrina Cox, assistant manager of Your Name Here. “We create those special gifts that you can hold close…personal gifts.”
