Interesting titles are paramount for speeches for just as good housekeeping. Starting off on a good foot is paramount and titles are your first contact with your audience.
Avoid Cliches like well.. pretty much every other posts I have made for example. Look for originality and something fresh that will get people curious. Use titles that are active like “A Walk with Giants” or “Jumping into Equities”. Try something original with humor. For example take a title like “Cars should yield to Joggers” and rename it something like “Don’t Stop for me”. Look for inspirations from recent books movies or even to topics in recent news articles.
Alexandra Watkins, ALB, a member of San Francisco Toastmasters, is founder and chief innovation officer of the naming and branding company Eat My Words. She says, “You have to catch someone’s interest with something unexpected, irresistible, fun or colorful — or with a clever twist on a familiar word or phrase.” She gives two examples on the subject of photography: “How to Shoot People” and “Confessions of a Sharp Shooter.”

Interesting that you mention Toastmasters. For anyone looking to enhance their communication or presentation skills, Toastmasters is a great organization to help you do so in a very non-threatening environment. The time of the meetings may be challenging for most of us (8-9:30am on Wednesdays) but more information can be found here: http://emory.toastmastersclubs.org/
