Client brief

Need name suggestions for publishing business which aims to do the following

  • publish books on a collection of poetry, short stories, and novels

We are looking for names:

  • which does NOT contain words like "book", "publish" and similar words
  • must end with ".COM"
  • Must NOT be a premium domain
  • Open for names ending with "ly" or "fy" (such as lovely.com, lovefy.com)
  • You can use the name of a bird, animal, river or forest as well. (eg: Penguin, famous publishing company and Amazon, based on amazon forest)
  • If you are an Indian, we welcome Indic and fusion names as well. (eg: Lufthansa, a famous Germany based Airline company)
  • Take inspiration from existing blogging or publishing company names like ScoopWhoop.com
  • We can have names with three different words together such as “terribly tiny tales” abbreviated as “ttt”.
  • names ending with "scripts" prefixed by "3 or 4 characters" which has either meaning of its own or can be described, such as, "tufscripts.com" where "tuf" can be described as "Thoughtful, Understandable and Friendly".

The names may have nothing to do with the publishing business. Show your creativity and come up with easy to pronounce and remember names - something that sticks in mind once heard.

Naming tips for Book Publishing and Literary Brand

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.
