There can be quite a difference between a creative, funny or catchy business name. We’ll discuss the difference between these three and how to use them for maximum impact.
Creating Catchy & Creative Names for a Business or Startup
Our Brandings team is constantly being asked to create funny, catchy or really creative business names. It must be said, there can be quite a difference between the three. One difference between the names comes down to the type of business or company you’ll be starting.
The Brandings Business Name Development Team really loves creative business and product names. And the team want to encourage you to post them here when you see them, and we’ll do the same thing. Furthermore, we love a good funny and catchy business name but, only when used within the right industry. For instance a funny business name is not good across the board and you should use hesitation when using one.
If you are opening a cleaning service by the sea, a lake or on the coast, for instance, something funny or funny like “A Mermaid” would work. This name is funny and memorable but not stupid and when paired with a clever logo, maybe one where the mermaid is holding a feather duster, you’d know exactly what the company does.
A while back I wrote a blog called “Off-the-wall names get people to look twice” and in it, I wrote about a Los Angeles Times article discussing crazy local business names. Two of the funniest and most stand out names were Hammered Liquor and AA Liquor Mart.
Both of the businesses were making 20% of revenue from non-alcohol related merchandise; t-shirts hats and the sort according to the article. Both owners also stated that they’re are doing far better business then even the previous tenants, who were selling the same products within the same retail spot. This would be a great example where a funny business name can work.
Now a funny company name may not work for you. No one wants a funny lawyer, broker or accountant but even some of them could use a clever company name. If you’re familiar with this blog, you’ll know that we say over and over again how we love 5 letter company names and 6 letter company names that seemingly have no meaning.
Check out some examples of creative and funny company names:
-
Ryell$2,890.00 -
RubySeal$1,890.00 -
Rhumus$2,417.00 -
RedScions$99,898.00 -
Intellegen$8,880.00
The above business names would work well for many companies. Furthermore, these names even make for some very great clever or catchy companies. For instance, we like the name “Hegly.” Doesn’t really mean anything? No, but would make a good brokers office? Consider this, “Hegly Brokerage,” sounds good right?
Ever hear of “hedging” a bet? I know the spelling is different but, it trigger something in the listeners mind. Subconsciously in the listeners mind they make the association of “hedging” and “Hegly Brokerage.” Not bad when the association when you’re playing the market and don’t want to lose.
Think about what type of company you’re naming and whether it should be a funny company name or a catchy business name but either way it should be a clever name.
Above are some of Brandings’ Whimsical and Funny Company Names which are available. Take a look at some of the above and see if they inspire you. If you have any interest in any of them please contact our Brandings Team.

Hi there, this weekend is fastidious in support of me, because this point in time i am reading this great educational piece of writing here at my residence.
Thanks, I’m not sure what the question is but if you’re writing a piece about education and you want to publish it, you may want to start an education related business and website. For that you’ll want a education sounding web name and corresponding exact match dot-com domain name. Have a look at some of our education focused and remember that for that type of site your name has to sound smart, interesting and somewhat serious.
Best of luck to you.

Thanks for your comment. Who couldn’t enjoy creative or funny company names and I guess that is just the point. Creative and funny company names can really cut through the clutter of ordinary names but as a word of warning, that’s not always a good thing. You have to make sure that a funny or creative company name is appropriate to your industry, company or business.
