The company name is one of the most important elements you have to take into account when deciding to start a business. Why? Because it’s the first image that your business will project. Few people take the time and effort to come up with a name that not only sounds good and it’s memorable but also is related with the domain of activity and also reflects the philosophy of the company.
When trying to decide upon a company name, there are a few elements you need to take into account for the end result to be the best. First of all, you have to think of a name that is easy to remember but also lets people know what it is that your business does. Also, you have to make sure that the name is not confusing and that it is unique. You wouldn’t want to find out that some other company has a very similar name that customers can confuse yours with easily. Before you settle for the company name your think best suits your business, check its availability to be certain that no one else is using it, no matter if the activity domain is different from yours.
Another aspect you should think of is if the name you have chosen is brandable. For example, if you say Xerox you immediately think of copy machines. Of course you may not have the money to market your business as much as this company but with the right name it may become brandable.

A name for a wood making furniture company? Let’s see, off the top of my head:
Mahogany LLC?
Timbercraft Inc?
Oakworks?
Cedar Creations?
Craftwork?
Holzmann? (German for ‘wood man’)
Ironically, I’m having an impossibly hard time coming up with a name for a mobile app development business myself.
