What We Score
Professional naming agencies evaluate names on four linguistic dimensions. This tool applies the same criteria — based on research in phonosemantics and brand linguistics — to any name you type in.
Sound Symbolism
Hard consonants like K and T feel strong and energetic. Soft vowels and liquid consonants like L feel gentle and flowing. We analyze whether your name's sound matches the impression you want to make.
Phonetic Impact
Can someone hear your name once and say it back? Names with clean syllable structure and natural mouth feel are easier to recommend and remember.
Cognitive Fluency
How easily does your brain process the name? Names that are too long, use unusual letter combinations, or need explanation tend to score lower on recall and recognition.
Distinctiveness
Does your name sound like every other company in your space? We check whether it follows generic patterns or actually stands apart from competitors.
