Standard Name Labels

What Are Standard Name Labels?

Standard name labels are small peel-and-stick labels printed in 50 sizes on any of 5 materials, from Standard Uncoated to White Vinyl and Clear. People reach for them whenever two of the same thing need to be told apart: lunch boxes and water bottles at school, cables and chargers in an office, jars and bins in a pantry, gifts that need a "to and from." Because the label ships cut to size on a sheet, you peel and apply with no trimming on your end.

Print a plain black name to keep it clean and cheap, or go full color when a logo and artwork come along for the ride. If you want a fully open canvas rather than a name-focused layout, the Standard Custom Labels cover that, and the name label sits right beside it as the quick way to get a name onto everything.

What Size Should a Name Label Be?

Standard name labels come in 50 sizes, from a 0.5" circle through 0.75", 1", and 1.25" circles up to a 4.625" CD label, with a default of a 0.5" circle and custom sizing up to 6" by 5". The right one comes down to where the label lands.

A small 0.5" or 1" circle is a tidy name dot for a pen, a bottle cap, or a cable tag. A larger circle or rectangle carries a full name plus a phone number or a logo on a lunch box or a folder. The biggest presets run up to a 4.625" CD label, and if none of the 50 is exactly right, set a custom size up to 6" by 5". All 50 sizes are grouped below exactly the way the live configurator presents them, so you know what you can change before you change it. If a round name dot is all you need, the Standard Round Labels are built around exactly that shape.

What Material Should You Print On?

The material decides how the label looks and where it holds up. There are 5 to pick from, and the right one depends on the surface and how rough a life the label leads.

Uncoated when you want to write on it

Standard Uncoated takes a pen, so you can print a batch of blank name spots and fill them in by hand as you go. It is the plainest, most flexible pick for name tags and organizing labels.

Semi-Gloss or Hi-Gloss when color matters

Semi-Gloss and Hi-Gloss make a logo, a photo, or a bright background pop, so a name label doubles as a small piece of branding. Print these 4/0 full color and a plain sticker turns into something people notice.

White Vinyl or Clear when it needs to survive

Standard White Vinyl stands up to moisture and handling on bottles, lunch gear, and anything that gets washed, and Standard Clear reads like the name floats right on the surface. All 5 materials sit in the configurator below the way the press runs them.

Start From a Press-Ready Blank

Already have your artwork? Skip straight to a press-ready blank instead. Each blank name label template is built at the real trim size for the size you order, with the bleed and safe margin already drawn in, so a name never crowds the cut. Grab the size that matches your order below, drop your art in, and upload.

How Much Do Name Labels Cost?

Standard name labels start at $23.88 for a set of 25, and the per-label price keeps dropping as the quantity climbs toward 25,000, so a cheap name label really comes down to how big a run you order. A set of 300 runs $65.97, 900 runs $94.25, and 4,000 runs $283.97, which pulls the per-label cost from about 96 cents at 25 down to roughly a nickel at 25,000. So how many do you actually need? Drag the slider below to set your count and watch both the set total and the true per-label cost update live, and find the point where one more step up barely moves the budget.

Black Ink or Full Color, and a Proof Before You Print

Name labels print 1/0 black ink only or 4/0 full color. Choose black for a clean, plain name that reads clearly and costs less, or full color when a logo, artwork, or a bright background is part of the design.

Not sure the file is right? You do not have to gamble. Go straight to production when your file is press-ready, request a free online proof to check the layout on screen before the press runs, or order a next-day hardcopy proof to hold the real thing in your hand first. You set the ink and the proof option in the configurator, so nothing prints until you say so.

How Do Name Labels Compare to the Rest of the Range?

Standard name labels are the value pick when all you need is a name on a sheet of peel-and-stick labels, but they are not your only move. If you are weighing a return-address label, a fully custom layout, or a round-only shape, it helps to see the trade-off in plain numbers. The chart below lines name labels up against their closest siblings, including Standard Address Labels, so you can compare the starting price on each before you choose.

How Fast Can You Get Name Labels?

Name labels print on a 3 business day standard turnaround, and when a first day of school or an event date sneaks up you can move that to 2-day, Next-Day, or even Same-Day production. Each step buys back time for a set percentage on top of the base price, so you only pay for speed when you actually need it. Same-Day orders need to be approved by the cutoff to ship that day. Compare every turnaround tier below and see exactly what the rush adds before you pick.
