6 Facts that Make a Catchy Company Name

Here are some of the findings from our catch company naming research:

  1. The catchiest company names are short in length and contain only letters. These names have no hyphens or numbers that can often confuse customers. If a number is used, we found that it is incorporated in a way that makes sense and increases the memorability of the name, for example 9ineteen.com.
  2. Catchy company names are easy to spell. We found the best names don’t have bizarre spellings. We also found that catchy names are composed only of English characters.
  3. Each of the most successful catchy business names work to engage and empower the customer. They stand out and create excitement. They are evocative and give the audience a sense of mission of distinction of the company.
  4. 96% of catchy company names has a pleasing texture and sound. When each name was said aloud, the name has a solid cadence and good flow (we call this the “it just sounds good” test).
  5. The visual designs of each of these catchy names were unique and memorable. Each of the names had a strong graphic image that reinforced the key evocation in the name. They captured attention without hitting in a powerful way.
  6. 100% of the catchy business names avoided puns and/or plays on words. Each name stood out on its own without trying to be too clever or too cool.

As we stated earlier, you must be able to acquire the dot-com domain extension for your name choice. In business today, you simply must own the dot-com domain extension. The dot-com extension is the “gold-standard” in business.

Our Findings:
