How did you come up with the name for your startup?

@vitor_seabra love it! It's always impressive when a name so succinctly captures the essence of a product. Were there any other names that were in contention? All the best for your launch btw. Have followed your coming soon page :)

@namrata_arya indeed, namrata! Pluga was the first and only choice. It was almost 10yrs ago, so it was easy by that time setting up this name. And yes! I was already following Namify. Would you follow mine too?

@vitor_seabra That's amazing! It's always great to find an available domain for your first choice name 🙌I have followed your launch :) It sounds very cool!

@vitor_seabra Pluga, I love the sound of that - how it rolls off the tongue. It needs a jingle haa!

@visionoiry Awesome! It's straightforward and easy to remember. Love it when the name so effectively conveys what the product is about. Thank you for sharing your story! 🤗

@visionoiry I've followed MLTR btw. Excited to try it out. All the best for your launch!

@namrata_arya we have provided a free trial period, so you can try all the functions of MLTR, including AI recognition of meals using iPhone camera. AI update coming soon with the launch )

@visionoiry That is so cool and kind of serendipitous since i just started following a diet and could totally use something like this!

@namrata_arya thanks to the diet, I lost weight from 115 to 80 kilograms. Actually based on this personal experience, came up the idea to create a convenient nutrition tracker ))

@salar__davari Such a clear and straightforward name! It communicates exactly what you do. Love that. Were there any other names in contention? What made you zero in on this? Thanks for sharing :)

@sarahthemarketer Interesting. I thought the search engine was domain agnostic when it comes to something like this?

@namrata_arya it is easier to rank for a made a word vs. ‘Blue’. You want something that as fewer search results.

@sarahthemarketer Ah okay! I understand what you mean now and couldn't agree more. A highly generic word is so hard to rank for when people are looking for your brand on search. In fact, more and more people have started to put the brand name in search and then click on the first URL that comes up as a way to get to the website. So this definitely is a great strategy

@herwig_kusatz This is such a cool story!I love the name 'Sound Strategy'. And finding it in such a serendipitous way feels like it was meant to be :) Thanks so much for sharing this with us. Really cool model BTW. When do you launch?

@herwig_kusatz oh! We launch 2 days after. All the very best to you. I’ll drop by on Monday to checkout your launch :)

@konrad_sx such a lovely name! Made up words often end up being the most powerful ones since they stand out so well! Also as being discussed on this thread as well, they have benefits from SEO standpoint as well. Thank you for sharing this 🙌

@namrata_arya I'm glad you like it. I also think good names are really important, and it's a great application for AI. Will support your app!

@shownotes those names are fantastic! Our research did show that friends and family come to the rescue more often than not in the name selection process. Also $40k is wild 😅 my favorite amongst the 3 is EVOKNOW though. Love how simple and clever it is. Also quite memorable 🙌 Thank you so much for sharing these stories with us 🤗

@namrata_arya Thanks! When I launched EVOKNOW 22 years ago, I thought I was creating a knowledge-based company, so I asked my cousins to think in that direction. They knew I had already published half a dozen tech books since university, so they came up with something related to knowledge. Sadly, EVOKNOW ended up being a B2B, global franchise management systems company for mid-size enterprises—one of the most boring applications of brain power, IMHO. But it became a long-lasting success and is still going strong today. I just recently ventured into B2C to share the boredom of working with enterprise folks, who are often 2-10 years behind the cutting edge.

@shownotes What a journey this must have been! It’s funny how our plans can totally shift over time. Even if it turned out more B2B than you expected, having a successful run is amazing. Moving into B2C must be a nice change of pace

@justin_crosbie Passkeyme is a great name - straightforward and super easy to remember. Conveys what the product is effectively. Can totally imagine how great it must have been to find the domain available. That’s like hitting a jackpot 😅 exactly why we should not only the domain availability, but also trademark and username availability across every name. Thanks so much for sharing your story with us 🤗

@dzaitzow sweet! Such a fitting name. Could you explain what dynamic content blocks are? I’m not sure if I understand this correctly

@namrata_arya totally - we've got a builder that helps users create digital assets ex: marketing pages, lead magnets, worksheets, surveys etc. There are 2 distinct types of "blocks" that we have to create content. We've got static blocks (non-interactive) ex. an image block, a list block, a timeline block, a rich text block etc. Dynamic blocks are those that we deem to be interactive ex. AI output block, text input block (where the user can edit and save information), Multiple choice block, Slider block etc.

@mrvaibhav98 Finding a cheap domain name is always a win 🙌 And Falcon has a really nice ring to it :) Thanks for sharing this with us!

@yash_gupta15 That’s a smart approach! Looking up business names and domains simultaneously is key, especially with something as catchy as "bold." It's awesome that you reserved a few good ones right away. Discussing with friends and family always helps. We've found a lot of people tend to do this. It's a bummer that the .in domain limited your international reach, though. At Namify AI, we aim to help folks avoid that by finding names and domains that work globally right from the start. Thanks for sharing your naming journey!
