What makes a business name actually work?
The best brand names share 5 properties. Check your shortlist against all five before registering.
✓ Easy to spell from hearing it
If someone hears your name and can't Google it correctly, you've lost them. Avoid creative spellings unless you have massive marketing budget.
✓ Easy to say out loud
Your customers will refer you by word of mouth. If the name trips people up, they'll avoid saying it — and avoid referring you.
✓ Memorable after one encounter
The average person hears a brand name 5-7 times before remembering it. Shorter, distinctive names cut that in half.
✓ Domain and trademark available
Check .com first. Run a USPTO trademark search or Trademarkia before committing to any name. Disputes after launch are expensive.
✓ Doesn't limit future growth
Amazon was named after the world's biggest river — not 'Seattle Books'. Avoid names that trap you in one product, city, or trend.
Frequently asked questions
Should I use my own name as a business name?
Only if you're building a personal brand where YOUR reputation is the product (consulting, coaching, speaking). Otherwise, a standalone brand name is more scalable and transferable if you ever sell the business.
How do I check if a business name is taken?
Check: (1) Google for the exact name, (2) domain registrars like Namecheap or GoDaddy for .com availability, (3) USPTO.gov or your country's trademark database, (4) social media handles. All four — not just one.
Does my business name affect SEO?
Only marginally. Google ranks content and authority, not brand names. Don't pick a keyword-stuffed name ('BestChicagoPizza.com') — it looks amateur and damages trust.
Should I go for .com or is .io / .co fine?
.com is still the standard consumers trust most. .io is acceptable in tech and SaaS where the audience understands it. For local businesses or consumer products, .com is strongly preferred.
How many names should I shortlist before deciding?
5-10. Sleep on your top 3 for 48 hours. Say each out loud 10 times. If one stops feeling weird, that's your name. Don't decide the same day you generate them.
