Is a fantasy name suitable for your author's brand business?

Fantasy or invented names seem fictitious; a reference to the business is usually unrecognizable. Names like "TikTok" or "Hulu" are meant to stand out because of their sound and look and come across as entirely different than the typical keyword-based names in the industry. Since they do not describe a concrete service, one can invent a meaning of the name and give it an image through advertising. Ultimately, only you can decide whether this suits a author's brand business. If you want to have a unique brand and are willing to invest time and money in your brand image, a fantasy name is an exciting option. Tip: with a descriptive addition to the fantasy name, a slogan or logo, you can provide it with an "explanation".

Start the search for your author name with keywords

The rule here is: more is better! The more extensive your keyword list, the more building material you have for finding a name. But don't just think of the obvious words that describe your author only in general terms. Or words that say how "great" your company is. Examples here are "quality", "customer proximity" or "professional". Because then you only come up with name ideas that don't convince anyone because everyone else uses them too.

A fantastic name for authors is needed

Isn't that what all founders, startups, self-employed people and companies want - an excellent company name? But what does "cool" actually mean? Mostly, people think of names in the style of successful other companies or brands. Example: Apple. Isn't that a mega cool name? Then let's turn the tables and take another fruit. Can you imagine your company being called author's brand Banana or author Avocado? In many cases, rather not, but for startups or companies that want to stand out, a more unusual name is an exciting possibility. And it doesn't have to be a type of fruit. Just let the company name generator surprise you.

How can I find a product name?

Good news: Searching for a product name is similar to searching for a company name. The company name search often takes longer, as it represents all the products or services you plan to offer now or in the future. As a result, the decision for a company name is often more important than a product name.

When searching for a product name, it's essential to consider whether it can be expanded or limited as your company grows and develops. Please choose a unique name that can stand independently rather than being too closely tied to a specific product or service.

How do I find out if the name for my author's brand is still available?

Great question! It's crucial to ensure your chosen company name is not protected by anyone else, meaning there aren't any other commercial offers with the same or a similar name. The first step is to do a thorough search engine check. Type your name idea into a search engine and see what comes up. If there are already companies or products with that name, be cautious. However, more than relying on search engines alone is required. Even if you don't find anything, checking company registers, trademark databases, and domain availability is still a good idea. You should also check to see if your company name is already being used on social media.

How do I do it all? Luckily, helpful tools will take care of these checks for you. In the NameRobot Toolbox, in addition to a name generator for every conceivable style, the control center offers an entire section just for name-checking.

If you research thoroughly, you're already on the right track. However, speaking with an expert, such as a startup consultant or a trademark lawyer, is still recommended to ensure you've covered all your bases.

Is anyone allowed to have a company name?

It's a common misconception that solopreneurs or freelancers cannot use a business or made-up name. In fact, there's a distinction between a "business name" and a "company name." Only companies registered in the commercial register can use a company name.

However, all other businesses, self-employed individuals, and freelancers can use creatively modified names or a freely invented name as their business name. But it's important to note that the first and last name must always be included on business letters and in the imprint to clarify that the business name is not a "company" legally.

Finding company names - what are the most important tips?

There is a lot of advice and opinions on this question on the web. Don't let that put you off. However, one absolute top tip for your company name is:

Find a unique name! Why distinctive? Once you launch under a particular company or project name, you work to make your business or brand known.

Therefore, you must first ensure that your name isn't in use yet and that no other companies, brands, or websites with the same name exist. So a domain check and a trademark search are necessary, so there is no rude awakening later.

And only if your new company name is "distinctive" and not yet trademarked can you protect it so that no one else but you is allowed to use it.

But quite apart from that: If you open a barbershop, you certainly don't want a nearby store with the same name to exist. Therefore the naming rule number one is: use a specific company name!
