Starting your own business can be stressful. Whether you're building a brand new start-up, want to get started as a freelancer or open a retail store - it feels like you have to tackle 101 projects simultaneously. And one of the most important of them is finding a name for your business.

Ironically, this one actually needs sufficient time and leisure or a decent budget, but we know from experience that these are exactly the resources that people starting a business tend to lack. Fortunately, there's NameRobot, where entrepreneurs and businesspeople can find ideas for start-up names with a simple online software and then check them immediately.

NameRobot will help you to find the right name for your start-up or your business with our professional business name generators both quickly and simply. Generate options with Naming Toolbox, then review serious candidates with NameScore before you commit to a launch name.

How to Choose the Right Name for Your Business

Before you can really get started as a freelancer or a company, you need a good name. Then again, in the early stages of setting up in business, you probably have a whole lot of other concerns, and you might be unsure about how to actively start looking for a name for your company or activity.

So just how do you go about developing naming ideas for yourself, and how do you decide which one to go with? NameRobot has some answers. We are ready to help people like you who are in the process of setting up a company or want to go into self-employment with helpful tools and step-by-step guides to the naming process.

Naming Takes Time: Don’t Rush It

Even if you can hardly wait to start your business, you should take a step back, take a deep breath, and spend some time thinking about your naming options.

If you make the right decision now, you could have a great name that will see you and your business through the next twenty or thirty years. If you look at it like this, taking a week to find one doesn’t seem so out of proportion, does it?

So we recommend: set one week aside and use it to find the right name.

Generate Great Names Fast - with NameRobot

The right name will get your business off to the right start. If you’re quick, you can use NameRobot and the full range of helpful name-finding tools in Naming Toolbox. They will surely help you find the name you want.

Step-by-Step: From Idea to Business Name

If you’re not a naming professional, you might not know quite where or how to start your search for a start-up name. It’s nothing other than the classic “blank piece of paper” problem which writers often have, and NameRobot has a solution: it breaks down the process of finding a business name into several steps and guides you through them.

Brainstorming Tools for New Businesses

People starting out with a new business need inspiration, whether in the form of crazy ideas, funny rhymes or telling anagrams.

The Brainstorm tool in Naming Toolbox is a good place to start and get suggestions based on relevant keywords. It gives you the effect of a brainstorming session without needing an entire team of colleagues - and without having to bother friends, neighbours or grandmothers to help in your naming efforts.

Just trust NameRobot to work with you.

Automatic Generators for Tailored Results

Once you’ve got a range of ideas, it’s time to use Naming Toolbox and turn them into start-up names. Tools such as Combinator, Supplementer and Fantasizer can produce original suggestion after original suggestion at the touch of a button.

The tools use your personal keywords which you entered or discovered before. This means that all suggestions will be personalised to you and your business. Whether you want a more classic or a weird and wacky name, there will be something there for you - all you need to do is to pick your favourites.

Check and Finalize the Perfect Name

NameRobot's tools help people going into business to select the right name from the range of suggestions made. They allow you to check whether your favorite name idea is viable, using Domain Check and Trademark Check to see whether the name is still available.

For a broader structured view, compare your shortlist with NameScore before you buy domains, brief a designer or launch with one final name.

NameRobot’s extra hint: Please remember that directories are always sorted alphabetically. Pick a name that begins with a letter early in the alphabet!
