Alongside the thumbnail, your title plays a crucial role in attracting viewers, so coming up with something compelling is well worth the effort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But what happens when the inspiration well runs dry and you can&#8217;t think of a title or theme for your next piece of content? Fear not. RouteNote Licensing has put together a nifty title generator designed to spark inspiration and help you develop your next video idea. Just add a subject and give it a whirl!!!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>How to use the generator<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1872\" height=\"1355\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/routenote-licensing-blog\/2026\/09\/a8d927c6-content-creator-uses-title-generating-inspiration-machine-in-fairground-setting.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10778 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the generator is simple. First, come up with a subject you&#8217;re interested in. It could be anything, slot car racing, vinyl records, keeping Geckos, yoga, polishing fossils, you name it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have selected your subject you are faced with three title elements: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li><strong>What You Do<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>The Twist<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>The Angle<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The <strong>What You Do<\/strong> establishes the basic format of your video. <strong>The Twist<\/strong> adds something that makes the idea more challenging, unusual or intriguing. Finally, <strong>The Angle<\/strong> provides the question, outcome or payoff that gives the viewer another reason to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Simply add your subject theme where it says [SUBJECT] and randomly start combining the three elements together in the given order. This method offers up to 8000 different combinations for any one given subject!  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, have you thought of your subject? Here are your combinable sections&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>1. What you do<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The first element establishes what you&#8217;re actually going to do with your subject.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So simply select out one of these title starters adding your given subject in the brackets:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>I Tried [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Tested [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Explored [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Investigated [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Compared [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Ranked [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Reviewed [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Studied [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Learned About [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Tried to Master [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Went Looking for [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Went Down the Rabbit Hole of [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Spent a Week Exploring [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Took a Deep Dive Into [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Looked Into [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Gave [SUBJECT] a Try<\/li><li>I Put [SUBJECT] to the Test<\/li><li>I Discovered the World of [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Tried Something New With [SUBJECT]<\/li><li>I Wanted to Find Out More About [SUBJECT]<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2>2. The twist<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Next comes <strong>The Twist<\/strong>. This changes the way you&#8217;ll approach the subject. It can introduce a format such as a  challenge, restriction, time limit or experiment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Select from this motley bunch:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>for the First Time<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>for 30 Days<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>With No Prior Experience<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Starting From Scratch<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>With a \u00a320 Budget<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Without Spending Any Money<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Using Only the Cheapest Options<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Using Only the Most Expensive Options<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Using Only What I Already Had<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Without Looking at Any Guides<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Without Taking Any Shortcuts<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Under a Strict Time Limit<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>With One Simple Rule<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Using the Traditional Method<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>By Doing It the Hard Way<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>With Help From an Expert<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Without Knowing What to Expect<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>In the Real World<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>To See How Far I Could Go<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>To See What Would Happen<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>This is often the part that gives the curious viewer a clear reason to watch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>3. The angle<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, we have <strong>The Angle<\/strong>. This gives the title its payoff by suggesting what you&#8217;re hoping to discover, learn or find out. This is optional as the generator is designed to work just by combining what you do with a twist. But adding angles such as these to a video can increase intrigue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Complete your title by adding one of these*<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Happened<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Learned<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Surprised Me<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Discovered<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Nobody Tells You<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Got Wrong<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Wish I&#8217;d Known<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I&#8217;d Do Differently<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Changed<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Made the Biggest Difference<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Wasn&#8217;t Expecting<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Went Wrong<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Worked Best<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Didn&#8217;t Work<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Makes It So Interesting<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Makes It So Difficult<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What Makes It Worth Trying<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Would Recommend<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is What It Really Takes<\/strong><\/li><li>\u2014 <strong>This Is Why Everyone Is Talking About It<\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Note* I have added an \u2014 as this helps to break the title up effectively.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The angle can turn a simple experiment into a story with an outcome. It also gives the viewer a question to which they presumably want to know the answer to. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Let&#8217;s put them all together<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1725\" height=\"1168\" src=\"https:\/\/storage.googleapis.com\/routenote-licensing-blog\/2026\/09\/112b0240-lego-title-idea-generation.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-10779 lazyload\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Now for the fun part. time to put the generator to the test and see what interesting video angles we can formulate.<br><br>Let&#8217;s start off with a subject thats a YouTube favourite:  <strong>LEGO<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So let&#8217;s power up the generator (basically you coming up with random numbers between 1-20) You, I mean it, has plucked out: 11 \/ 16 \/ 4<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What You Do: <strong>I Went Looking for LEGO<\/strong><br>The Twist:<strong> With Help From an Expert<br><\/strong>The Angle:<strong> <\/strong>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Wasn&#8217;t Expecting<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Giving you the following title: <strong>I went looking for LEGO with help from and expert <\/strong>\u2014 <strong>This Is What I Discovered<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>Or perhaps we get active with the subject of: <strong>Stand up paddle boarding:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The generator might randomly select: 15 \/ 3 \/ 20<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What You Do:<strong> I Looked Into Stand up paddle boarding<\/strong><br>The Twist: <strong>With No Prior Experience<\/strong><br>The Angle: \u2014 <strong>This Is Why Everyone Is Talking About It<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Giving you this clickworthy title: <strong>I <strong>Looked Into Stand up paddle boarding<\/strong> <strong>with No Prior Experience<\/strong>\u2014<\/strong> <strong><strong>This Is Why Everyone Is Talking About It<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p>For our final example lets examine the subject of: <strong>Health<\/strong> <strong>suppliments<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here&#8217;s our rnumbers: 16 \/ 07 \/ 10<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What You Do: <strong>I Gave <strong>Health<\/strong> <strong>Suppliments<\/strong><\/strong> <strong>a Try<\/strong><br>The Twist: <strong>Using Only the Cheapest Options<\/strong><br>The Angle: \u2014 <strong>This Is What Made the Biggest Difference<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Resulting in this glorious title:<strong> I Gave <strong>Health<\/strong> <strong>Suppliments<\/strong><\/strong> <strong>a Try<\/strong> <strong>Using Only the Cheapest Options<\/strong> \u2014 <strong>This Is What Made the Biggest Difference<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2>Use the title generator for inspiration &#8211; not a strict rule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Obviously, some combinations will work better than others. The idea of randomly selecting three sets of numbers is really just a bit of fun, giving you a quick and unexpected way to spark an idea.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A more effective approach would be to actively explore different combinations and look for ones that immediately grab your attention. Sometimes a good subject and an interesting twist can be enough to break through idea fatigue or a creative block and inspire an altogether different angle thats not listed here. So don&#8217;t think you can&#8217;t edit or add your own twists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Think of the formula as a starting point rather than a finished video title. See what it unlocks, follow the ideas it throws up and, most importantly, have fun discovering where these combinations might take you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator is-style-wide\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>Stop risking your channel\u2019s revenue and momentum on a flawed system.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><strong>RouteNote Licensing guarantees that the music you license is protected from Content ID claims, allowing you to focus on what you do best: creating great content.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><a href=\"https:\/\/licensing.routenote.com\/\">Click Here<\/a> to Start Your Claim-Safe Journey Today!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many leading creators say that much of their content starts with a great title.
