However, if you look around, you will find dozens of such examples that may help inspire your work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we\u2019ll discuss some real-life examples of <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">logos<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with long <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">company names<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. For the sake of clarity, we will be including examples that contain three or more words.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s get started:<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#1 Natural History Museum<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6458\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image5-12.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1600\" height=\"833\" data-wp-pid=\"6458\">We do not know much about this logo but it is one of the best examples of<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> logo designs<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with a long company name.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">designer<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> has highlighted the first letter \u2018N\u2019 on the left with some unique elements. There is an emphasis on the color green, which is associated with nature and peace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the righthand side of the logo, its full name \u201cNatural History Museum\u201d is positioned in a way that fits perfectly next to the larger letter \u201cN\u201d. Each word is indented into a new line that seemingly works for this logo <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">design<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over the years, we have become accustomed to recognizing the <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">brand<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with just the \u2018N\u2019 logo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#2 Better Homes &amp; Gardens<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6461\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image2-13.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"416\" data-wp-pid=\"6461\">You can see two examples for the same brand above. The first one only highlights the first two words \u2018Better Homes\u2019 which makes sense since the company is mainly known for home improvement. The designer has done this by enlarging the font size of the two words<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second one includes the full name, yet the emphasis on words gives the logo a completely different impression. In contrast to the green logo on the left, the logo on the righthand side emphasizes that it also offers garden-related products and services in addition to home improvement. The text are all written in the same font size.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#3 American Eagle Outfitters<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6457\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image6-6.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1638\" data-wp-pid=\"6457\">Now a popular brand, American Eagle Outfitters is known to have a unique logo. Most people only pay attention to the Eagle, which has become synonymous with the brand. There are no colors in this logo and the designer has only used black color and white spacing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>#4 Lord Hobo Brewing Company<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6455\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image8-7.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"770\" height=\"623\" data-wp-pid=\"6455\">When the company first launched, it used the full name on almost all its products. However, over the years, they have moved to emphasizing only on their initials (LHBCO), which you will see displayed on most products today.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a clever way of creating a logo for a business with a long name. You may choose to only concentrate on the initials once people have become familiar with your brand.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#5 Ultimate Fighting Championship<\/b><\/h2>\n<h2><b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6462\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image1-11.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"500\" data-wp-pid=\"6462\"><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You will find several versions of the UFC logo but almost all of them only include the main initials. In actuality, UFC stands for Ultimate Fighting Championship, a company that has carved a niche by producing high-quality content.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When people became familiar with its abbreviations, they began to use only the letters \u201cUFC\u201d in their logo design rather than having its entire name written down.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#6 British Broadcasting Company<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6460\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image3-10.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"430\" height=\"150\" data-wp-pid=\"6460\">The BBC logo is so popular that some people don&#8217;t even know it stands for British Broadcasting Company. The company has upgraded the logo several times but they have almost always stuck to the same style.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><b>#7 Harvard Business School<\/b><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6459\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image4-11.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"351\" data-wp-pid=\"6459\"><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Compared to the many other<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> companies<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> that we\u2019ve looked at, this logo is arranged in a unique manner. It looks stacked and the badge that appears on the corner does not mention either the name of the school or the initials in it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, they have used unique symbols and colors that help people recognize the badge and its association to the Harvard Business School. If you are someone who is not familiar with their main visual elements, this may <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">make<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> it harder for you to recognize the logo without the text written on it. However, for others who are, simply using the badge as their logo may work very well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>#8 World Wrestling Entertainment<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6456\" src=\"https:\/\/designbro.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/image7-5.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1096\" data-wp-pid=\"6456\">This is one of the most unique logos out there as it only highlights two words and does not mention the E, which stands for Entertainment.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The company had to launch this logo after it <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cagesideseats.com\/2012\/8\/22\/3259376\/wwe-and-world-wildlife-fund-reach-a-settlement\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">got into a legal battle <\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">with the World Wildlife Fund to retain rights to its original WWF logo.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now that you have seen some great examples, we hope you will have no difficulty in creating a logo for a company with a long name.
