Help me with a name for my comms business please

cobbingstones

Hi all,

I'm starting my own telecoms company mainly dealing with CISCO routers and switches initially, both sales and support. I would also like to utilise the company to receive funds gained from the odd spot of contracting I do (Telecom related).

I have read the various rules for names including, no abbreviations, no hyphens, preferably not name based (too old fashioned) and preferably describing what you do. There are numerous possibilities if using the words communications, or Telecom(s), or Networks, but I am struggling to come up with something that stands you out from the crowd!

I'm a bit of an sad individual and would like something Sci-fi or space related such as Enterprise Telecom, or Quantum Comms, but would these be appropriate?

Looking through Yell there seems to be 70-80% of firms with either dull or non descriptive names out there. I'd prefer not to be in that group.

Any suggestions much appreciated.

Cheers

Justin

Ignore the rules, well most of them. Nothing wrong with being name based.

A play on martinthebandit's suggestion - how about Storm Comms? Very easy to remember, short, snappy... I'd take it but haven't got a comms business

you can run anything you think of though the company name and trademark checker to make sure it's available.

I was quite taken by tetron but there's already a similar name used for a computer systems co.

you need to think about your target market before you come up with any star trek names!
