Business Name Generator

Stuck naming a new business, shop, brand, app or side project? This generator mixes your keyword with word lists for fourteen industries and six naming styles used by real brands: modern suffixes such as -ly and -ify, two-word compounds, blends of two words, alliterative pairs, plain descriptive names and invented words that are easy to say. Each idea comes with its length and a matching .com idea so you can shortlist quickly.

How to use this tool

1. Type a keyword — your name, a place, a product or a feeling — or leave it empty.
2. Choose your industry and a naming style, or mix all styles.
3. Set a maximum length; short names are easier to remember and to fit on a sign or an app icon.
4. Press the button for a list, then check your favourites for domains, social handles and trademarks.

Formula

name = keyword or stem + suffix | stem + stem | blend(a, b) | adjective + noun | keyword + industry noun | invented syllables

Blends overlap the end of one word with the start of the next when they share letters (a + b), or join the first 60% of one word to the last 60% of the other. Invented words chain consonant and vowel groups so they stay pronounceable. Duplicates and names longer than your limit are dropped; the domain idea simply removes spaces and symbols.

Example

With the keyword Luna and the café industry, the styles give ideas like Lunaly (modern suffix), LunaBrew (compound), Luna Coffee House (descriptive) and Lucky Luna Latte (alliterative). With a 12-character limit, Luna Coffee House (17 characters) would be left out.
