Long stock + short put options: How is this strategy called?

Any comments/suggestions on this strategy?

That's a naked long position, short puts are a long position. To hedge you either buy puts, or sell calls against long stock.

Thanks Don

I'm not looking to hedge now, rather to have a bullish/neutral strategy.

I swing trade, so I can get out rather quickly to avoid/minimize the downside risk, just want to give the long stock a little boost during bullish/slightly bullish markets.
