So i am in the middle of starting my own company in computer support(focusing on teaching people how to use email, printer etc and solving problems that might be standing in their way). But i need a name, website, Email and phone number. The last one i have figured out as that is just a if it is kind of easy to remember its okay. But figuring out an E-mail and website requires a name for the company.
I have heard some people that named company’s with their name in it and regret it later. So how would one properly name a company? I am based in the EU if it matters but i don’t think this is something that is different in different cultures.
Things i currently think about are (my name) tech service and (my location(city)) tech service but i don’t know if that is a good idea and if i might get regrets in the future(for example when expanding to more locations or getting employees).
Thanks for your vision on this.
A name means almost nothing. And it means almost anything. It depends on context, so it’s not possible to give a plain answer to your question.
You could pick a word or phrase that is easy to understand and spell (“Blacktower” just came to my mind as an example) - but you must check that it’s available in the channels you need, e.g. a dot-com domain.
Avoid creative invented words. In my industry, there’s a thing called “Qapter”, and do you think anyone can spell that right? But there are many other invented words that are clear as day, like “Stellantis”.
You could even ask OpenAI to give you a list of words that meet some criteria you provide. You still need to check each one for existing uses and domain availability.
Coming up with a name is big business. Just ask any auto maker.
