Site provides brand name inspiration

Filed in archive Tools on June 15, 2006

What exactly is a guru Smile? A Dragbot? A Pop Cycle? Not even the creators of Wordlab are exactly sure.

The website offers an extensive database of brainpan drippings from the site's creators divided into more than 40 categories. There are also word games, articles, a regularly updated blog, contributions by visitors to the Wordboard Forum and a series of naming tools to help create everything from branding for pharmaceuticals to a cool sounding moniker for your next band.

The phrases are free, but Wordlab makes no guarantees about whether they've already been claimed or used. To find out if one of the site's words or phrases might be O.K. for your next product, company or business slogan check the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office's Trademark Electronic Business Center and visit Register.com or another comparable domain name registration service on the Net.
