    Here, this may help you out, so you don't have to consult a bunch of losers like us:

    Finding the right business name can be a real strain on the brain. If you feel like it shouldn't be this hard, you may be wrong. Naming a business is one of the first marketing decisions a new business needs to make, and the wrong business name can sabotage all your hard work. This is your chance to give your new business the best possible beginning.

    Know what you want to say

    When you begin to think about your new business name, you want to be very clear about the image that you create. If you're the one who personally handles all clients, you may want to name your business after yourself.

    If others are involved in running the business, your new business name may work better if the focus is on your product or service. Think in future terms, in case your plans include phasing you out of the picture.

    What's the right approach?

    Whether you have a sole proprietorship or a corporation, your business name should project your Unique Selling Proposition (USP). What is your specialty? What do you do better than anyone else?

    You can find a name with specific meaning, or you can choose a more nonspecific name and build an image around it. You can go with a straightforward approach, giving your business a practical name reflecting your business purpose, or you can craft words that describe something special about your business.

    How do you find business name ideas?

    When you think about names for a business, start with individual words. What words do you want customers to think of when they hear your business name? Write down every word that comes to mind when you think about the qualities that you want your business name to project.

    Then, get out the thesaurus and write down synonyms, homonyms, and alternate meanings. Play around with different combinations of phrasing, rhyming, variations, the meaning of a word in a different language - whatever comes to mind. Write anything down at this point. You're building a working list of choices.

    Screening the list

    Take a good look at your list, perhaps setting it down for a while and coming back to it later. First, eliminate anything that sounds inappropriate or doesn't communicate your message.

    Go over the remaining names for your business. Set the list down if you need to, and get back to it after a day or two. Run the list by your management team or other interested people who may have some fresh ideas. If your budget allows it, consider hiring a professional firm that generates business name ideas.

    Think again about what you really want to communicate and what you want customers to remember about you. Rank the best business names on your list, and put them in order with your favorite name at the top of the list.

    Put them to the test

    Your next step is to imagine your business name's impact on the real world and your prospective customers. Will your customers be able to pronounce it? Will your customers easily remember it? Will any group of potential customers be offended by it? Will your customers think you're too full of yourself? Will your customers think the new name is visually appealing?

    Names sometimes need to fit on a retail tag, a cardboard box, a business card, or the side of a delivery van. Imagine your name printed on your marketing materials, and imagine people talking about your new business. If you answer 'no' to any of those questions, cross that business name off your list.

    What is the best choice?

    By now, you should have a working list of functional business name ideas, one of which is the right one for you. Go over the process again and make sure those choices still look good after a day or two. The winning business name is at your fingertips.

    Take time for legal issues

    There are many restrictions on business name availability. Names must be unique. You cannot use a business name that is the same or deceptively similar to another. At a bare minimum you should search the state records for your particular state to see if the name is used.

    Finally, don't let an article on the internet complete the business naming process. Hire a legal professional to help you with the fine print on copyrights, trademarks, and business name availability. It may save you a lot of time and money later. The right business name can help you become a success!
