How it works

The 5-Second Naming Test

  1. Can you say it? If people can't pronounce it, it won't spread
  2. Can you spell it? "Photon" works. "Phaughtahn" doesn't.
  3. Is the .com available? .com is still the gold standard
  4. Does it mean something unintended? "Nova" = "no go" in Spanish
  5. Does it match your industry tone? A playful name for a law firm undermines trust

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I choose the right name?

Shortlist 10 favorites, test pronunciation, check domain availability, and verify there are no unwanted meanings in other languages.

Descriptive or made-up name?

Descriptive ("Toys R Us") is instantly clear but harder to trademark. Made-up ("Spotify") is unique but needs marketing.

What if .com is taken?

Try .io, .co, or .ai. Avoid hyphens, numbers, and obscure TLDs.

Do I need a trademark check?

Yes — search the USPTO database before finalizing, especially if you plan to grow.
