My tips when naming a business – one of the lessons in the free branding course (which I highly recommend you go through).

Practical Checks

In my naming guide PDF, you’ll find a checklist to choose a strong, memorable name. If you’re short on time, here are two vital points to remember.

Avoiding Legal Troubles

  • Check if another business has trademarked your name. You can quickly search the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) database or its equivalent in your country.
  • Check Google to ensure no other tanning salon in your area uses your desired name.

Securing Your Online Presence

It is crucial to have a website and email address that reflects your brand. With so many businesses online, finding an available domain name can be tricky. Consider adding your city name or keywords like “tanning,” “bronze,” or “glow” after your brand name to find an available option. Namecheap is a helpful tool for checking domain availability.

Funny Names

Do you want people to know that your salon has a laid-back vibe? Choosing a funny name can help set you apart from other salons that may be perceived as pompous and higher-end.

A name that makes people smile is a great way to show that your salon is approachable. However, a unique, creative, or especially classy name may not be a good idea if you don’t wish to come across as snobby and off-putting. If you want to appeal to the everyday person, then going with something funny is a good idea.
