Does anyone have any suggestions for a Graphic Design Business Name?

Question

My partner and I are starting our own business and I was just wondering if anyone had any good ideas for a business name?

Answer 1

The naming of your business could be one of the most important decisions you will make. A name's originality and legal availability will create a real asset value of its own, as it becomes marketed and gains market acceptance.

The name you choose will become the focal point of all the benefits and features that relate to your business. Customers will be able to find and refer others to it in the future.

Since any names that are suggested here may already be owned by another party, I wanted to go a different route...

I suggest either hiring a name creation firm or get together with your friends and/or family and throw a "name party" & have everyone bounce some ideas around. Compile a listing of names that you like the best. Once you have that list, do as much free research as you can before you delve into comprehensive research.

I listed some links where you can do some preliminary name checking. However, please be aware that this is merely scratching the surface of what's out there.

Only comprehensive research will tell you if the name is truly available. But, these links are free & a great place to start, so I'd try them out first.

There are other sites that offer free searching capabilities in conjunction with their commercial services, so I'm not able to post those links due to the Yahoo! TOS. You'll also want to check domain names & yellow pages, so simply do a search for "free domain name search" and "national yellowpages" and the appropriate links will pop up.

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Answer 3

The business name will become a logo, and that is called an Indentity, which people pay for skilled designers to do, for amount of £300 to thousands, depending your companies self image and skill, and vision.

You need to figure out what your vision is and think more about it than just going to set up a design company.

I won't let anyone come out with ideas for my company name but I'll give you one idea.

Use your first Name initial. Then use your business partner initial and then bang next to it Design. for example:

J&L Design

Then put a slogan that goes with your vision. What is it that distinguishes you from your competitor??? Or what's your vision and that can be a slogan.
