What is Brand Naming?

Your name is often the first thing people encounter about your brand. It's whispered in recommendations, typed into search bars, and printed on business cards. A great name does more than identify—it evokes emotion, conveys positioning, and becomes synonymous with the experience you deliver.

In the multilingual UAE market, naming carries additional complexity. Names must work in English and Arabic, avoid unintended meanings across cultures, and sound natural when spoken by diverse audiences. They also need to be legally available and digitally discoverable.

Our naming process combines creative exploration with rigorous screening to deliver names that are memorable, meaningful, and ownable.

Our Brand Naming Process

1. Discovery & Briefing

We start by understanding your brand, audience, and competitive landscape. What feelings should the name evoke? What messages should it convey? What names already exist in your space?

  • Brand positioning and values review
  • Target audience analysis
  • Competitive name audit
  • Naming criteria development

2. Name Generation

Using various creative techniques, we generate hundreds of potential names across different naming strategies—from descriptive to abstract, coined to evocative.

  • Multiple naming approaches explored
  • Arabic and English considerations
  • Cultural sensitivity screening
  • Preliminary domain checks

3. Screening & Shortlisting

We rigorously screen candidates for trademark conflicts, linguistic issues, and digital availability, narrowing to a strategic shortlist.

  • Trademark screening (UAE and international)
  • Linguistic analysis and pronunciation
  • Domain and social handle availability
  • Strategic evaluation against criteria

4. Presentation & Selection

We present final candidates with full rationale, helping you make an informed decision about your brand's most important word.

  • Detailed name rationale and meaning
  • Visual mockups showing name in use
  • Trademark filing recommendations
