Examples:

Why they are used and what they mean (Some Examples):
Kerrang - This is onomatopoeic. Spelt like how a guitar would sound when it is played.
Miz - This gives the impression of youth and rebellion because instead of calling the magazine miss, using the ‘z’ gives it an edge.
Marie Claire - This sounds French, and the French has sophisticated connotations and will attract both the well of people in society and the people wanting to get a taste of wealth and beauty.
Q – Could maybe suggest a musical queue, individuality as it is a difficult letter and is not a widely used letter. Also it could mean it is high performing letter like in scrabble it is worth ten points.
Delicious – This is a food magazine filled with recipes, so by calling the magazine this, it implies that everything inside will be oh high quality and taste delicious!
