Free Business Name Generator: Get 100+ Company Name Ideas (No Login)

Create as Many Name Options as You Want With Our Free Business Name Generator (Takes Just Seconds)

Not sure what to call your new business? This free business name generator helps you come up with a catchy name that’ll resonate with your target customers.

Naming a business can be hard! You might need a brand new business name, and perhaps you’re still refining your idea or concept. Or you could be rebranding an existing business, wanting to find a name that resonates even better with your target audience. Whatever the exact situation, you want to get it right.

It’s easy to get stuck at this stage—and many would-be entrepreneurs do stall here. If you can’t figure out what to call your company, you can’t take the next steps of launching your blog or making money.

That’s where the AI business name generator comes in. It’s designed to help you find the perfect name for your business … whatever niche or industry you’re in.

How to Use the Free AI Business Name Generator

The business name generator is really easy to use. Here’s how to get started.

Step 1. Describe Your Business

What’s your business all about? Describe it, giving details about your specific niche or audience if appropriate. The clearer you can be, the more on-point the business name suggestions will be.

We used “healthy snack subscription box for families” as our business idea.

Step 2. Generate 10 Catchy Business Names to Choose From

Once you’ve typed in your business concept, just hit the “Generate Ideas” button.

The AI will brainstorm 10 different business names for you, which will appear in seconds.

Step 3. Make a Shortlist of Your Favorites

You might struggle to pick between the different naming options. If there are several potential business names you like, click the “Copy” button to the right and copy each of them into a document.

For each idea on your shortlist, check out the domain availability for that name. 

Ideally, you want your domain name to be exactly the same as your business name. E.g. if your business is called “Snack Happy Box” then you want your domain name to be snackhappybox.com. 

Step 4. (Optional) Poll Your Target Market on Your Business Name Ideas

If you’re not sure which business name to go for, share your shortlist with your target market. 

You could do that through your existing email list or social media profiles, if you already have an audience. Otherwise, you could find an online group that matches your target market and ask them for feedback.

Is one name more popular than the others with your potential customer? This might well be the best name to pick.

Checklist: What Makes for a Great Business Name?

Whether you’re using this AI-powered company name generator or you’re coming up with names on your own, it’s worth thinking about these key factors for a great business name.

Your business name should:

1. Make it clear to your target audience what your business does.
2. Not be in use by other companies or businesses within your industry. (Check for trademarks.)
3. Be easy to spell and pronounce—you want a brandable business name that customers can easily share!
4. Ideally, be 3 words or fewer (and under 15 characters). You want to keep it simple and memorable.
5. Fit with your brand identity more generally, e.g. not using slang if your usual style is formal.
6. Be available as a domain name—you can use the search box below to check.

How to Get the Most from the Business Name Generator

Want to make the most of this business name generator? Whatever type of business you’re hoping to start, here’s how to come up with fantastic names for it.

1. Clearly Specify What Your Business is About

The name generator can only go on what you tell it about your business. A one word prompt like “cupcakes”, “websites”, or “candles” doesn’t really give it much information.

Be as specific as you can about what your business does. That might mean providing details on your industry, audience, and/or location. For instance:

• Wedding cupcakes in Austin, Texas
• Website design for churches in the UK
• Handmade candles, not-for-profit

2. Generate a Good Number of Business Name Ideas

By default, you’ll get 10 ideas, which may well be enough. If you’d like more to pick from, though, just click the “Generate More” button at the bottom of the list of ideas.

You can keep going, generating more ideas to choose from if you want to. If you have a long list (like a hundred business name ideas!) then you may want to use the “Export as CSV” button to download a spreadsheet of all the ideas.

3. Look for a Unique Business Name (Avoid Trademark Issues)

You want your business name to be unique because:

• You can’t legally use a name that another business has trademarked within the same industry and country.
• You don’t want customers to confuse your business with a different one (in practice, this also means avoiding fairly similar names).
• You want to use your business name for your website and for your social media accounts, which won’t work if someone else’s business already has that name!
• When someone searches online, you want search engines to show them your website … not some other business’s site.

When you find a name you like, check that it’s not already in use within your country. If it is being used, brainstorm some other ideas.

4. Consider How Your Business Name Will Work With Your Logo

Your logo is a vital part of your brand, just like your business name. Many logos incorporate the business name (or an acronym) so it’s important to think about how your business name will work as or within a logo.

You may want to experiment with a logo maker to try out your top business names. If you hit on a logo design that looks great, that name might be the best choice. You could even try creating a mockup of your business cards to see how the name and logo look there.
