How does NameScore help with naming?

NameScore supports founders, companies, and creatives with the systematic evaluation of name ideas. Each name check provides a detailed analysis showing how suitable a name is from legal, linguistic, and psychological perspectives. The NameScore Report gives you not only an overall rating but also specific checks — for example, trademark availability, domain availability, search engine presence, and sound/phonetic impact.

This helps you identify potential risks early on — such as legal conflicts or negative associations — and optimize your naming process accordingly. With NameScore, you gain a solid foundation for selecting a viable company, brand, or product name.

Can I use NameScore in the trademark process?

Yes, NameScore provides a valuable initial assessment of a name’s trademarkability. The report checks whether your proposed name might already be registered as a trademark or exists in a similar form. These results give you clear guidance on whether your company, brand, or product name is generally usable from a trademark perspective.

Especially during the branding phase, NameScore helps by highlighting potential risks and thus making it easier to prepare for a trademark application or a strategic brand positioning. Important note: the name check does not replace legal advice — but it does provide a reliable basis for decisions before you take further steps in the trademark process.

Can agencies or teams check multiple names at once?

Yes, NameScore is particularly well-suited for agencies, marketing teams, and creative departments that want to evaluate multiple name proposals in parallel. With the tool, you can systematically check various ideas for company or brand names and compare the results across clear reports. This makes it easy to see objectively which name offers the best chances legally, linguistically, and digitally. It’s ideal for client presentations, internal selection processes, or pitch situations where a data-driven rationale for your recommendation is important. By placing several name analyses side by side, teams save time and can underpin their creativity with a professional online name evaluation.
