Ours are all numbered except one and it's called the Trophy Wagon. It's my wife's stand. It's a 4x6 mounted on a trailer and we move it when she gets bored with the scenery.

Think about it as you drive or walk to it and then stop and look at it for a couple minutes. The name will come to you, grasshopper.

Ours are numbered as you go from N to S. They have a number then a letter that describes it. For example: 1T, 2D, 3R.
That way it's real easy to understand where each stand is on the ranch.

I'd have to be there, see them and maybe hunt them in order to name them. Some of ours are... the palace... it's the biggest nicest the mansion (on the hill)... sits on the edge of a hill soggy bottom... the roof leaks so if you sit down after a rain well... (plus it's in a creek bottom the tumble weed... it blew off the trailer on the way to the lease the two holer... looks like a two hole outhouse the snow cone stand... looks like ect...
I'll be glad to come hunt them and name them for you!
DISCLAIMER ATTENTION: Your decision should NEVER be based SOLELY upon my advice, recomendation, or opinion.

Front stand--Location Snake stand-- Killed 2 rattlesnakes under it once. Truck stand-Built in the back of a broke down truck. Condo stand-Biggest and most comfortable Taco stand- ground stand that looks as big as a concession stand. Lemonade stand-right off a trail that is sometimes heavily traveled. Enchanted forest stand-Daughter and b-in-law says there is ghosts down there when it gets dark. The road- Box blind that watches a pasture road
Any name that is easy to remember and will let people know where you are gonna be will work. The numbers system never has worked for us because people cant/wont remember them

camp ground blind - for those that are late to the hunt kicker - because Blake shot a 12 with kickers there opening weekend "the cave" - literally, the blind is a cave in the side of a hill. "twin cedars" - the tripod is between two big cedars "hobbit" - the feeder is short "antenna" - it's beside a huge antenna "duck city" - overlooks a pond that's always packed with ducks "corner shot" - very corner of property "the sh*t" - when I first checked the camera, found the biggest buck turd I've ever seen sittin under the feeder

on BSR it's allot more simple Stands are numbered 1-8. Kinda in a circular pattern on the ranch. Starts counter clockwise at 1 south west of the lodge and ends with 8 southeast of lodge.
Makes it easy because if your going to 5, you know that it is somewhere between 4 and 6. If you find 4, you're going the correct direction. If you come up on 6, turn around.

our blinds are named:
Pig Squeal- A pig squealed their once
Buck sendero- A buck was spotted on that sendero once
Middle Tank- A blind next to the tank in the middle of the property
Pivot Blind- A blind that overlooks the pivot field
When the place was bigger we had blinds named:
Guajillo Meadows - A blind that overlooked a guajillo meadow
UFO- A blind that overlooked a feeder that only threw corn to one side of the road
Primero - First blind on the place
Buck Snort- ????
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.
