"I'm at the gallows."
Why?
I've come up with at least 200 names for my startup. Alas, 180 of them were taken. But that still leaves me with 20 candidates. I claimed the best 5, and when I launch, I'll just keep the one (and any derivatives).
The trick is, until you launch, you're never done naming your company. I still write down one or two names per week and review them later. Surprising how bad a great name is a week later.
Naming your startup is like everything else in your startup. Perservere. Perservere.
