Name the Day

Name today for free. Then the highest bidder owns it.

One page. Every day starts unnamed. The first name of the day is free: type it, pick a colour and emoji, and the headline becomes "Today is ___ Day". After that anyone can take the day over from $2 and outbid by a dollar until midnight UTC, when the day is sealed into the archive. Outbid? Raise your claim and pay only the difference. Gift a day (birthdays, launches, inside jokes) with a certificate they keep. Names are screened automatically. Streamers get a free OBS overlay.

Hi Product Hunt. I built Name the Day because I got annoyed that someone, somewhere, decides it's National Donut Day and the rest of us just go along with it.

So: one page. Every day starts unnamed. Pay $2 and the headline becomes "Today is ___ Day" in your colour and emoji. Anyone can outbid you for a dollar more. At midnight UTC the day is sealed into the archive with everyone who bid, and it's done.

Honest status: it launched yesterday. Yesterday was "Launch Day" because I paid the $2 myself, and today is still nobody's Day as I write this. Which means the first person here to pay $2 owns Product Hunt launch day. That feels right.

What it's good for: birthdays (there's a gift flow: sign it, add their email, they get a certificate), launch days, inside jokes, and streamers (free OBS overlay at nametheday.lol/overlay that flashes when the day changes hands).

What it's not: gambling. No chance, no prize, no refunds. You're buying a day.

I'll be here all day. Weird day names welcome.
