Dream Journal Titles?
I am keeping a Dream Journal -
I know you are supposed to title dreams, so I do. While the DJ part is very rewarding for all the promised reasons, I sometimes wonder about the titling of my dreams, especially when one dream has had two or more topic areas....
e.g. (in condensed form here):
(went to beach, swam.... fun, great waves!... then went to my apartment, received Beatles albums in the mail... I had some of them already and will have to return the others...)
A coherent title doesn't really pop into mind, and this happens alot. I just make something up but I'd like to get more out of the entire DJ experience, including this part.
Other dreams I title that are coherent but my titles may not be as "zingy" as they could be.
So... any tips on how to come up with cool/meaningful dream titles? What do you do?

When I have dreams that focus on many different subjects that are completely different I just name it after one part of the dream, usually the one that is most fresh and can be remembered best.

If there's no real focal point, maybe try to get a word which captures how you feel about the dream as a whole.

Took me a while to get some semi-decent dream titles down. As you go along, you sort of think up more witty/cool titles. Like, I had a dream with four things going on. I called it "A Story of Love, Romance, Nerds, and Fail." Increasingly, my dream titles are beginning to draw inspiration from songs, books, etc.
So, your beach/beatles dream could simply be something like, "The Beach and the Beatles," or "Beach Jam," etc. The possibilities are endless. :) Quietly protesting the 10 character limit.
