I need a name for a business guys. Please help

**Monorail** · 15th October 2006, 18:50

Alritey folks me again. I've decided to take a leap and start a basic web design business. I've got friends who are extremly fluent in html, so if i get stuck i've got plenty of help.
Anywho, I need a name for it, and it's bloody hard finding anythng clever that hasn't already been taken. So if you guys could please help out it'd be much appreciated.
Hell there mite even be a prize for the person who comes up with the one i use.
Cheers,
Matt

Stay away from .com and it'll make your life much easier. There's also a line of thought that says you should name your company after something visible - hence "Red Hat" - because it makes the name easier to remember. Nothing starting with "e" like "eBygum". Or "i" unless it's an application for Mac OSX. Nothing ending with "nz" because it's cheesy and shite. Similarly nothing using IT industry nomenclature for the same reason. Nothing that sounds like a porn site - "Virtual Katy", I kid you not. Nothing that sounds like an existing site - "utube.com" actually exists, for instance.

Actually, I kinda like "eBygum".

Other than that I can't help you. The only other one I could think of - "The Wall" (as in, we don't need no education) appears to have been taken.

"The Labour Party"

You'll get to make up all the rules yourself on how it operates, get to f*ck the customers over and instead of going bankrupt you can then set up an 0900 number to save your ass.
