3. **Shortlist and verify** - Copy favourites, then verify trademarks, socials, and real domain availability before you launch.

## How to pick a startup name that survives launch week

Favour names you can say once and spell correctly. If people search a phonetic guess and never find you, the clever spelling costs more than it earns.

Check trademark basics, social handles, and whether a clean .com (or strong .io/.co) is available before you print the brand on a launch page. This tool suggests ideas - it does not check live domain availability.

Short brandable names (one or two syllables) tend to travel better on Product Hunt–style launches and weekly directories than long descriptive phrases. Save the keywords for your title tag and meta description.

Once you lock a name, generate a slug, title tag, and tagline with the other ScrollLaunch tools, then list on ScrollLaunch so the product page becomes your canonical dofollow surface.
