The story behind miamby.com.
Miamby starts with miam, which is what French speakers say when something tastes good, and ends in a soft, friendly syllable. It has no fixed meaning anywhere else, so it can carry a food brand, a kids' product or a playful consumer app without baggage.
“Small bites, big smiles.”
Why it works
Miamby opens with miam, the French exclamation for yum, and closes with a cosy -by ending. The result sounds edible and kind without meaning anything specific, which leaves room for food, children's products or a playful app.

The honest note
The echo of Miami is strong for English speakers, and miam means little outside French-speaking markets, so the taste connotation does not travel everywhere.
