Your shortlist
How the names are made
The generator mixes your keywords with word lists chosen for each style and type of business. It runs in your browser, so nothing is sent anywhere. Press Show new names for a fresh batch, and star the ones you like to build a shortlist.
Check these before you choose
A generated name is only an idea. Before you settle on one, check that the domain name is available, that the social media handles are free, and that no similar brand already exists in your field. Search the public trademark records to see whether the name is taken, and say the name aloud to a few people to check that it is easy to spell and remember.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a good business name?
Pick a name that is short, easy to spell and easy to say aloud. It should hint at what you do without limiting you if you grow into new products. Avoid names that are hard to spell or too close to an existing brand.
Does generating a name mean I own it?
No. A generated name is only an idea. To use it as a company or brand name, check whether it is available and consider registering a trademark. The rules depend on the type of business you set up, so check with the relevant registry or a professional.
What should I check before I finalise a name?
Check the domain name, the social media handles, existing trademarks and a plain web search for similar businesses. Ask a few people how they would spell it after hearing it once.
Does the generator use AI?
No. It mixes your keywords with built-in word lists in your browser.
Does the generator save my keywords or shortlist?
No. Everything stays in your browser, and your shortlist is lost when you close or refresh the page. Copy it if you want to keep it.
