    Post ######### Naming a new software company - REQUESTING YOUR SUGGESTIONS #########

    Hi guys,

    Me and my brother together with a few friends are about to start a software company. But we are having a situation of choosing the company name.
    We will be mainly focusing on webapplication development, though we will be providing other services.

    We thought about asking suggestions for a new name from friends and family. Hence, we created a Google Form to accept your valuable suggestions for the name.

    Please visit this Google Form and suggest some names:

    CLICK HERE TO SUGGEST A NAME

    Thank you.

    NOTE: Please be kind enough to suggest names via the above Google Form link. It will help us to keep track of the names and later would be able to shortlist some names and finally pick one.

    If my post was helpful to you, then express your gratitude using Rate this Post.
    And if your problem is SOLVED, then please Mark the Thread as RESOLVED (see it in action - video)
    My system: AMD FX 6100, Gigabyte Motherboard, 8 GB Crossair Vengance, Cooler Master 450W Thunder PSU, 1.4 TB HDD, 18.5" TFT(Wide), Antec V1 Cabinet

    Social Group: VBForums - Developers from India


    Skills: PHP, MySQL, jQuery, VB.Net, Photoshop, CodeIgniter, Bootstrap,...

    Would this be a local company with a local clientele, or would it be seeking a more international exposure? The reason I ask is that it seems like a company with a local clientele might benefit from using a name that incorporates local, cultural reference.

    Call it HashTagHashTagHashTagTashHagTagHashHashTag.

    Or just ############## for short, since you like hash tags and think it gains prominence.

    Or just AAA. Or Goggle (oops! Taken).

    My middle name is Philip and I always say "Philip with one L" when giving people my full name to write down. When I was working for myself, my business name was Wunnell Development, ironically spelt with two Ls. I like names created in such ways.

    My limited company is called TopOut Software. Topping out is when you get to the top of a climb and climb up onto the path/slop/whatever at the top instead of being lowered off by your belayer. It's kind of an in-joke way of saying success.

    Nice!
    I've noticed that the US is a bit sparse on such humor, in general.

    LOL I use to joke with my wife that I was going to open a furniture store and call it "Sofa King". Advertisements would be along the lines of: "Our prices aren't just low they're Sofa King low, you'll be amazed". NOTE: You might have to say it out loud to get it.
