Brand naming

Create an identifier as
unique as your business is

Driving differentiation through a compelling brand name

Naming is one of the most critical activities when branding organisations, products, services, technologies or experiences. Even more than visual identifers such as logos, your name immediately qualifies not only your business, but is proxy for your standing and reputation in the market and the esteem you are held in by your clients.   

Clients and consumers create strong emotional connections to brands through their brand names. Where values and personality is shared, these emotional bonds can become even stronger.

Smart naming can also accelerate marketing efforts, with a strong differentiating name providing the advantage of heavy lifting. An instantly recognisable name makes marketing more effective.

A considered brand name:

  • Is instantly identifiable to the market and clients alike
  • Creates positive associations in the minds and hearts of your audiences
  • Sharpens differentiation from competitors
  • Enables greater legal protection of your business and its brand assets
  • Becomes synonymous with certain values, characteristics and attributes.
