Tips for Choosing a Product Name

• Keep it simple — The best product names are easy to say, spell, and remember. Avoid complex words that customers might struggle with.
• Highlight the benefit — A good product name hints at what the product does or the problem it solves. Think about what makes your product special.
• Consider your market — In South Africa, consider how the name translates across different languages and cultures. A name that works in English should also be appropriate in Afrikaans, Zulu, and Xhosa contexts.
• Check trademark availability — Before finalizing, search the Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC) database to ensure your product name is not already trademarked.
• Test with your audience — Run your top name choices by potential customers. Their reactions will tell you if the name resonates or falls flat.
