Real Funny Newspaper Nicknames (For Reference) đī¸
These are genuine, long-circulated nicknames readers gave to real papers, not funny newspaper names invented for this list, so they are kept separate from the original ones above.
The Daily Disappointment â old nickname for a paper some readers found predictable
The Evening Crapital â a play on the Evening Capital’s name
The State Snooze â a play on a university’s State News
The Star Buffoon â a play on the Star Tribune
Newspaper Names with Meaning đ
Some funny newspaper names land harder with a bit of context. Here is what each one signals, and where it tends to fit best.
| Name | Meaning | Best For |
| The Daily Grind | for a paper covering everyday, work-life stories | Local and workplace beats |
| The Fine Print Files | for a paper known for detail-heavy reporting | Legal or policy coverage |
| The Grapevine Gazette | for a paper built on rumors and tips | Gossip or small-town news |
| The Loading Ledger | for a digital-first outlet that pokes fun at itself | Online newsrooms |
| The Overtime Observer | for a sports section that covers close games | Sports desks |
| The Second Draft Gazette | for a paper that admits it corrects itself often | Satire or parody pages |
| The Recess Report | for a playful, kid-friendly publication | School or kids’ newsletters |
| The Sideline Scoop | for coverage from just outside the main action | Sports or event coverage |
| The Cubicle Chronicle | for office and workplace culture stories | Business sections |
| The Water Cooler Weekly | for a paper built on office chatter | Workplace or business beats |
How to Create Your Own Funny Newspaper Name (Step-by-Step) đ ī¸
- Pick your beat â Decide what your paper actually covers: school life, local news, gossip, sports, or a made-up story. The beat shapes every word choice in your funny newspaper names from here on.
- Choose a tone word â Pick one word that signals mood: Daily, Weekly, Evening, or Morning for something classic, or a playful noun like Muddle, Ruckus, or Grapevine for something funnier. Most funny newspaper names on this page start exactly this way.
- Add a newsy noun â Pair the tone word with a traditional newspaper term: Times, Gazette, Herald, Chronicle, Ledger, Bulletin, or Press.
- Say it out loud as a headline â Read it in a sentence like “According to The [Name]…” If it still sounds funny or fitting, your funny newspaper name works.
- Check it is not already taken â A quick search keeps you from accidentally reusing a real paper’s actual name, especially for local or school projects.

Tips for Choosing the Perfect Newspaper Name đĄ
Match the tone to the audience. A kids’ newsletter and a campus satire paper should not sound the same, even within the same set of funny newspaper names.
Keep it readable at a glance. A name that takes two reads to understand will not work on an actual masthead.
Lean on real newspaper words. Times, Gazette, Herald, and Chronicle instantly signal “this is a newspaper,” even with a playful word attached.
Say it in a sentence. “You read that in The [Name]?” is a fast way to test if any of these funny newspaper names actually land.
Avoid real, currently active newspaper names. Especially for school or local projects, to avoid real confusion.
Consider how it looks as a logo. Short names fit mastheads better than long, clause-length ones.
Test it on a friend. If they laugh or ask to read it, your funny newspaper name is doing its job.
Frequently Asked Questions

Every one of these funny newspaper names is original and free to use for school papers, fake stories, games, or parody projects.

Final Thoughts đ°
A funny newspaper name does the hardest job in one line: it makes someone want to read further before they even see a headline. Whether you needed something for a school project, a parody site, or a made-up story, the right pick from these funny newspaper names should feel like it was already sitting on a real newsstand.
Save this page, mix two favorites if one alone does not feel complete, and use the generator whenever you need a fresh idea. Come back to these funny newspaper names anytime your next project needs a masthead worth reading. đ°
