The most common naming mistake isn't picking something bad. It's asking one word to do two jobs.

WHY IT COMPOUNDS Short name → repeated more Repeated more → recognised sooner Recognised sooner → less explaining every year That compounding is the asset you're actually buying.

The long descriptive name feels safer because it front-loads the explanation. But you only get to explain once, to people already listening. The name has to work on everyone else — in a sentence you're not part of, in a room you'll never enter.

Five rules for naming. Not opinions — mechanics. Each one explains why a name works or doesn't.

ASK WHAT IT WILL COST YOU Not the price — the friction. Spelling it out. Repeating it. Correcting it. Explaining it. Add that up over a decade, then compare it to getting it right now.

That's the list. No budget. No agency. No workshop. Just deciding before you fall in love with something.

Four checks that tell you more about a name than a month of deliberation. None of them cost anything. All of them take under a minute. Almost nobody runs them.

4 — IMAGINE IT IN FIVE YEARS Picture it on a company 3x your size. If it feels small now, you'll outgrow it before you're ready to do anything about it.

Four checks. Four minutes. No budget. The alternative is finding out after the signage is printed. Which one would your name fail?
