Tips for coming up with a new web startup name
GBKS: I agree with many of the approaches here and just have some personal experience to add.I would start with writing down descriptive works and just keep playing with them, creating different combinations, looking them up in the thesaurus, etc. I haven't had any luck with latin, greek, etc names, the approach always sounds good, but I find the results unrelatable (if that's a word). You want something people easily understand, starting with foreign languages is starting from the complete opposite side.Also, don't expect to pick it in 20 minutes. Give yourself a week or more where you toss all kinds of ideas around in your head, let different variations sink in, bounce ideas back and forth between friends, etc. Keep coming back to it over and over, even if it's just for 5 minutes.
