Brand Name Generator

Generate creative, memorable, and brandable names for companies, products, apps, and startups. Combines naming strategies with brandability scoring and domain availability checking.

When to Use

  • Need creative brand name ideas for a new company or startup
  • Want product or app naming suggestions
  • Need to brainstorm names based on keywords, concepts, or industry
  • Want names evaluated for brandability and memorability
  • Need to find available domain names for the brand

Context Discovery

Before generating names:

  1. Business Context: Industry, target audience, brand personality
  2. Keywords: Core concepts, values, emotional associations
  3. Constraints: Name length, TLD preferences, names to avoid

Popular Suffixes/Prefixes

Suffixes: -ify, -ly, -io, -hub, -ment, -able Prefixes: get-, try-, go-, my-, super-

Brandability Scoring

Evaluate names on:

  • Memorability: Shorter = better (1-10)
  • Pronounceability: Vowel ratio, consonant clusters (1-10)
  • Spellability: Common patterns, no confusion (1-10)
  • Uniqueness: Distinctiveness (1-10)
  • Domain Available: .com bonus
