    So far I have:

    'Diam'
    'Vitabyte'
    and
    'Proxeus'

    These are incredibly lame (except Proxeus. He'd be the coolest Transformer EVAH! :D)
    and were generated in a random word generator thingy.

    help!

    Haha!!! You must be screwed if you're asking the TCNers:D

    I've got nothing, I'm not good with names:(


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,356 ✭✭✭Donegal Lass


    is this a serious question, as in you need a name for you business, or what would you call your business if you could name it whatever you wanted!!

    there was a bar in my town that was named 'The Swinging Diddies' until the parish priest started a petition and they had to change it!!

    Everyone around me is feckin useless. So yeah, I am desperate :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    It's a real business. It's the trading name really I guess you could say, so I can go wild as the ACTUAL business will be called something else. As long as it's not vulgar or in any way homo-sexual it should be fine

    what kinda business is it

    What's the business?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    It's a trading name. It really doesn't matter what the business is. Or who owns it.

    I'd call it Optimus Prime if I wouldn't get the bollocks sued off me.
    Exageration, but you get the idea.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 34,808 ✭✭✭✭smash


    well it should reflect what the business does....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    If you want to narrow down the endless possabilities!

    Wait.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,838 ✭✭✭Doomspell


    name it after yourself!

    Maybe you could call your company:

    Hugh Fearnley-Whittingsgall Ltd.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,934 ✭✭✭egan007


    well if it does not matter to you why not call it xyz?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    It's actually a partnership, so.....specific names wouldn't really work.

    And I tried all that "take yer names and mix them around" ****. Crap.

    EDIT: xyz Ltd. is crap. I want a COOL NAME :cool:

    Like........ I DON'T KNOW!

    Silent Assassin...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    Yeah but that implies the business is a contract killing agency. Fair enough it sounds coolish, but I'm looking for something non-descript.

    Take fexco for example. What the hell does that mean? Nothing! It's not a cool name, but you know, it works.

    'Xylenoid'
    'Conland' :D
    'Yeatage'
    'Tetium' (not bad...)
    'Scorpism'
    'Evilage'
    etc


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,838 ✭✭✭Doomspell


    I like Tetium


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,801 ✭✭✭✭Kojak


    Footballinthegroin.com could be a good name if your company in on-line :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 35,522 ✭✭✭✭Gordon


    Plop Fulcrum inc.

    compuglobalhypermeganet

    or

    roflmao


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,175 ✭✭✭chamlis


    It will be online actually, but the website name/domain name are totally different to this trading name.

    roflmao is pretty good actually :D
    But it's hard to pronounce for someone who doesn't use teh internet as much as us :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 30,120 ✭✭✭✭Star Lord


    I.m.h.o. ?

    AFAIK you can't use common terms, as that would be genericide before you start.

    SONY came up with a name and sued people who thought it meant something in some langague.

    You could use YNOSTM, ha because I got here first, and I might be willing to sell for a purely nominal consideration.
