Hey everyone,

I need help thinking of a domain name/company name .. I haven't thought of anything "professional". Is there any certain guidelines that one should use in naming a company? Please inspire me :-D

Guidelines - not really, but make sure that you give your company a name that stands out, sounds nice, is brandable and not already used.

When choosing a company name you've got to make sure you can turn it into some sort of theme or it just won't catch on. Something simple and easy to remember will stick in people's heads too. Don't go for anything that "sounds cool" but doesn't really have any meaning.
