I normally name the track after whichever vocal sample I use (if I use one at all). Otherwise its totally random.......

Tend to just name it whatever I'm feeling/after whatever experience it's based on/after the person it's based on, or how that person makes me feel. Or alternatively quote something I've read recently if the songs based on that.

Just name every track after a sexual intercourse position. I also like the keyboard smash - add vowels approach. It is like throwing a formant on a tuned noise osc.

Grimace sounds like a horrifying sexual position...

Often a cool song title will come to mind before an kind of thoughts about sound. I've often written a song from the mood of the title. It's on par with coming up with a name for say, a short story, then writing text that fills in the blank.

Otherwise, it's been said.
