Your shop title is the short intro that shows up at the top left of your shop home page. It is also included in the page title and in search engines. You only have about 66 characters (according to Etsy) that will show up in Google results so here you want to be concise yet convey your shop and its offerings. You will obviously want to mention your product. You can choose to be very specific like "sock monkeys" or general like "jewelry" depending on what items you create. For the rest of your shop title include style terms, your shop name, or a phrase that communicates something personal about your shop.
