Client brief

We are looking for a brandable, easy to spell name for an online shop selling various categories of household equipment.

The shop is positioned towards the premium segment (prices ranging 30-150€). So, it is not the “cheap plastic stuff” segment, but also not “super high price” luxury.

Therefore, target audience is rather well situated and mostly well educated. The type of products will be similar to sites like www.crateandbarrel.com but less broad and not gadgets or plastic stuff.

Here are some keywords/ categories/ values that the brand stands for and which could inspire the name:

  • Home, living, house, interior (or things with a similar meaning like place, cave, loft…)

  • Premium, high quality, upper class, handpicked, elegant

  • Elegance, design, style, comfortable, enjoyable touch, sustainable, natural, beautiful

  • Feel, touch, relax, visual, manufacture

Here are our criteria for an excellent name:

  • Bring up positive & matching association

  • Soft sound (i.e. good: “homeo”, bad: “craftric”)

  • Easy to spell/write (i.e. good: “tersonal”, bad: “stylesset.com”), writable without mistakes for non-native speakers when hearing it

  • rather shorter than longer, easy to remember and pronounce/ spell

  • Name should have some depth to the meaning (e.g. second meaning to parts of it, some anchors in Hawaiian, Latin, Greek or similar (good example: Amazon “Kindle” - to kindle, bad example “HomeInteriorShop” – too boring and descriptive)

  • .com address available (desirable but not a must)

  • trademarkable is a plus (2 words combination will not do the trick)

A good examples would be westwing.com – but is is already taken. The name is for an EU based shop mainly operating in Germany, but name should work internationally.

Tips for choosing a great business name

Keep it pronounceable

A good business name should be easy to say out loud and spell from memory. If you have to spell it out every time you say it, it will slow down word-of-mouth growth.

.com still beats clever TLDs

Despite hundreds of new extensions, .com remains the most trusted TLD for professional brands. Customers default to typing .com - pick a .com name whenever possible.

Avoid trademark traps

Before you register, run a quick trademark search to make sure the name is clear in your industry. Similar names in the same category can lead to costly disputes later.

Test it in a sentence

Say "I work at [name]" or "Check us out at [name].com" out loud. The name should sound natural, confident, and memorable in everyday conversation.
