Naming Strategies

Compound Words

Focus + Flow = FocusFlow
Team + Sync = TeamSync

Portmanteaus

Productivity + Cloud = Prodcloud
Remote + Velocity = Remotely

Invented Names

Short, pronounceable
No existing meaning
Easy to trademark

Keywords + TLD

deep.work
remote.team
focus.app

Tips

Start broad: Give Claude context about your industry and audience
Iterate: Ask for variations on names you like
Check availability: Use registrars to verify (Claude can guide you)
Consider trademarks: Unique names are easier to protect
Test pronunciation: Say it out loud, share with others

Commands

"Generate 20 domain names for [project description]"
"I like [name] - give me similar variations"
"Focus on .io and .co TLDs only"
"Give me more invented/brandable names"
"What patterns do successful tech startups use?"
"Score these domains: [list]"

Troubleshooting

All good domains are taken Ask: "Focus on newer TLDs like .app, .dev, .io"

Names don't feel right Provide more context: industry, tone, target audience

Need more creative options Ask: "Give me weird, unexpected combinations"
