Coming up with a brand name sounds easy—until you actually sit down to do it. Founders, creators, freelancers, and even marketing teams hit the same wall:

• Every good name feels taken
• The ideas sound too generic or “cringey”
• Domain availability is a nightmare
• Inspiration doesn’t show up on command
• Brainstorm sessions go in circles

If that feels familiar, you’re not alone. Naming is one of the most frustrating early-stage branding challenges—and also one of the most critical.

That’s exactly why the Brand Name Generator on NineLabs exists: to remove the pressure and turn creativity into a fast, repeatable process.

Why Naming Is Harder Than People Admit

Most people hit at least three of these problems:

 1. You overthink it

You’re trying to make it meaningful, short, unique, memorable—and future-proof.

2. Everything sounds “taken”

Trademark checks, domains, and social handles kill half your ideas immediately.

 3. Brainstorming isn’t scalable

Even with a team, the ideas dry up fast—and inspiration rarely strikes on demand.

4. Creativity gets filtered too soon

People discard bold ideas early, out of fear they won’t “work.”

So instead of momentum, you get frustration and creative fatigue.

What Makes a Good Brand Name Anyway?

A strong brand name usually checks at least 4 of these 6 boxes:

• Easy to say
• Easy to spell
• Short or memorable
• Fits your tone or industry
• Looks good in a logo
• Available as a domain or handle

That’s a lot to evaluate while also trying to be creative. AI helps by giving you volume, variety, and direction instantly.

How the Brand Name Generator Helps (Without Replacing You)

The tool doesn’t spit out random names—it builds from your intent.

You enter:

• A keyword or theme
• Your brand style (fun, elegant, techy, luxury, etc.)
• Single-word or multi-word options

And in seconds, you get:

• Dozens of naming styles
• Multiple tonal directions
• Options you’d never think of yourself
• Names you can actually build around

Then you can refine, favorite, remix, or build new directions from what you like.

Example: From Idea to Name in Under a Minute

Let’s say you’re launching a wellness brand.
You type in keywords like:

calm, clarity, wellness

Select a tone:

modern + soft

The tool might generate names like:

• Claryon
• Wellnest
• Calmera
• Everen
• NumaSpace

From there, you can:

• Lock in a direction
• Adjust tone (more bold / more premium / more playful)
• Explore domain-friendly variations

What used to take days can now take minutes.

When Should You Use It?

This tool is perfect for:

• New startups
• Rebrands or pivots
• Product lines or digital services
• Agencies creating name options for clients
• Solo founders who don’t want to wait on inspiration

Even if you don’t pick an AI-generated name directly, it’s an idea engine that accelerates the creative jumpstart.
