If it's an Eco Pack, and Laundry wins, we could call it "Home Eco."*
If Preserving/Nectar wins, your kitchen would become an "Eco Chamber."
It takes more than just skill to be Carbon Conscious. It's a true "Art D'Eco."
One of the best things about going Off the Grid is saving money. We'd be creating a true "Eco-nomy."
*for those of you who don't know, "Home Eco" is a play on Home Ec, which is short for "Home Economics," the classes girls (and sometimes boys) would take to learn how to care for a household. Also, I couldn't come up with a good pun for Composting.

Lol they should let you write out some of the item descriptions!
How can we name it when we don't even know what the gameplay item will be yet?
We have the general theme of the objects/clothing, stuff packs haven't usually been named after the gameplay item, the gameplay item usually just fits the theme, or we would have had Rockwall Stuff, Slip n' Slide Stuff, Hot Tub Stuff, etc.
Instead the names seem to usually fit around the general theme of the pack as a whole, but it's a good point; the gameplay feature might be prominent enough to identify the whole pack around it (like Bowling Night Stuff clearly being centered around the bowling lane object), I guess it depends a bit on the gameplay object, but not entirely.
If laundry is added I could see it being called Washroom Stuff because laundry is a feature they'd want to advertise in the title itself, but some other gameplay might not be so prominent and just intended as a side piece to the general theme (like how the objects in Kid's Room Stuff or Luxary Party stuff that aren't directly or even indirectly mentioned in the title)
Graham mentioned in the Fitness Stuff Pack that they like puns. If the choice is laundry, they would certainly want to include a laundry reference in the title.
How about:
Spin Cycle Stuff Pack
Shout It Out Stuff Pack
Stains Are A Pain Stuff Pack
and last but not least:
Hung Out To Dry
I was going to suggest Rustic Living SP or Homestead SP but other people did it before me lmao Anything using the term eco should be avoided I think. The objects in the pack (even without actual laundry in it) just make it look like living in the great depression, even though most of the eco friendly furniture I see in real life are pretty chic and modern looking. Its just not a great ambassador for the eco living lifestyle.
My speculations on hints for future content:
-Cars Update
-Spiral/Diagonal Stairs Update
-Hotel Pack
-Romance Pack (possibly combined with Hotel Pack)
-Bands Pack
-Royalty Pack
-Fashion Design Pack
-Fairies Pack
-Werewolf Pack
-France-inspired World
@BlueR0se "Can It" would be such a good name if the canning station wins lmao Or "The Can Can SP" and then have a picture of a line of sims kicking their legs like they're doing the dance, holding cans in the air.

Nectar/Preserves: Granny's Kitchen Stuff (I'm just being a goof with this one)
I don't really have suggestions for the other two but Eco Living isn't a bad fit for either of them.

Like this one. Also maybe Literally Nothing to do With Eco-Living stuff. LNTDWEL for short.
Perfect for marketing - lets everyone know exactly what they're spending $10 on.
Sounds good! That's my vote right there.
