    Suggestions for new company name?

    Hi all

    Im about to start a new venture, a computer and network maintenance company.
    Ive been thinking about a name for my new company but any thing ive thought of has been taken already.
    I know a good company name is very important, so would appreciate it if you guys could give me some suggestions...

    How about:

    Advanced Networking:
    You'll be one of the first in the phone book... has a nice ring to it (IMO)

    However, Advanced Network is a not for profit org... so people may get confused.

    Business Name & Tag Line Generator (Not automated)
    http://www.yudkin.com/generate.htm

    Then you can use the marketing buzz word generator to create some ads.

    Quitmzilla is a firefox extension that gives you stats on how long you have quit smoking, how much money you\'ve saved, how much you haven\'t smoked and recent milestones. Very helpful for people who quit smoking and used to smoke at their computers... Helps out with the urges.

    Hmmm,

    "Advanced Technology Boutique"

    Network & computer maintenance solutions & re-engineering.


    Cacosapo please do not use "reinventing", it has bad connotations in English, it means "wasting your time"............please use "re-engineering" as this is good. You will probably have come across "process re-engineering" and "business re-engineering"? these imply forward and progressive thinking

    How about Control-Alt-Delete

    Or maybe.... "I don't ****ing come to AO hardly at all".

    Or:

    "On June 24th Land of the Dead comes to theatres, and I'm buying gore a ticket".

    Good to know.... (site has generated that)
    but due that here we speak portuguese and HP uses "reinvent" here as logo, it fits perfectly (latin words with an english accent are allways good here )

    One of my professores told me that the localization of the name helps to acquire more attention for native people is you are aimng to conduct your business in your town ..... I mean not travelling abroad .. or out side the country ... so think of a name that will be totally approved by your people ...

    I remember a story about a car company that failed to market it car because of the name in south america .... the car was called Nova ... and it equals "Doesn't work" or something ... i don't recall it exactly ...

    Nihil's post is really great and relevant ...

    my $0.02

    cheers
