Hi,

I've always heard it is really important to have a great business name. I'd like to get feedback on a name I came up with for a business. It is called "MotiAds" and the tagline is "Interactive Ads That Motivate".

Question:
Do you like this name?

Choices:
Yes
No

I think it's the way the human eye works (or maybe it's just my eyes), but when I first looked at it, it read like "motaids" which reminded me of "rolaids" which I'm sure you're not wanting to do. Even reading it the correct way... say it out loud... does it really roll off the tongue? Are people likely to stop and say "what was the name of that company again?" (probably) You want people to be able to easily pronounce and, most importantly, remember it. Just my opinion.

Wow, that's good stuff Fanatic!

Yeah, personally, I really don't like the name that much either. It can be hard to come up with a million dollar name. Most of the domain names I like are already taken.

I'll post other options to this thread as I think of them. Folks, feel free to express your ideas for possible names!
