Business Name Generator

Company names by industry or from your own word: 17 industries, a dozen word-building methods, length and pronounceability scores.

We build names from industry roots in several ways and rate each one right away: is it too long, is it easy to pronounce. Click a name and it gets copied.

Industry

The name you like may already be taken: someone might hold a registered trademark for it. Before you invest in a name, check it in the WIPO Global Brand Database — searching registered marks and pending applications there is free.

The generator works in two modes. In the industry mode it picks roots from the field you select: seventeen industries, from general business to medical and legal services. In the custom word mode it builds names around your word, adding prefixes, business-like endings, and Latin roots.

Each run returns 32 name suggestions. The "More names" button adds new ones without repeating what you have already seen. Names you like go to a favorites list, and the length limit filters out the names that are too long.

The names are not built from a single pattern: the custom word mode uses twelve word-building schemes, and the industry mode uses eleven. The schemes alternate, so you will not get a dozen names of the same type in a row.

Besides length, the generator checks how many consonants run together inside a word and where its parts meet, and how many syllables the name has. A cluster of consonants at the junction is a common reason a name is hard to say out loud and to remember.
