"Check .com" opens a public WHOIS/RDAP lookup at ICANN in a new tab. If it finds no registration, the domain is probably free to buy from any registrar.

Checklist before you pick a name
Say it, spell it. Tell the name to a friend and ask them to type it. If they misspell it, customers will too.
Check the domain. Use the Check .com link. If the .com is taken, consider a small variation (adding a word like get or hq) rather than an unusual extension.
Search the business register in your country or state and the trademark database (for example USPTO in the US, EUIPO in the EU or the UK IPO) for identical or similar names in your industry.
Check social handles on the platforms your customers use.
Think long term. A name tied to one product or town can be limiting if you grow. Keep it broad enough for the future.
Frequently asked questions
How does the business name generator work?
It combines your keywords with industry words, prefixes and suffixes using several naming patterns: invented brandable words (Brightly), compounds (Brightforge), descriptive names (Bright Labs), classic names (Bright & Co.) and fun names (The Lucky Spoon). Invented words are filtered so they stay easy to pronounce.
Does it check if the domain is available?
Not automatically. The tool works offline without any API, so it shows the matching .com and a Check .com link that opens a free WHOIS/RDAP lookup at ICANN. If the lookup finds no registration record, the domain is most likely available from any registrar.
What makes a good business name?
A good name is short (ideally under 12 letters), easy to spell after hearing it once, says something about what you do or how you want customers to feel, and has an available domain and social handles. Avoid names that are too close to an existing brand in your industry.
Can I use a generated name for my company?
Yes, the ideas are free to use. Before you register a company or print signs, search your country's business register and trademark database, and check the domain and social media handles, to make sure the name is not already taken.
Should I choose a descriptive or a brandable name?
Descriptive names (Maple Street Bakery) tell customers instantly what you do and can help local search, but are harder to trademark. Brandable invented names (Bakerly) are more unique and easier to protect, but need more marketing to explain.
Are my keywords sent anywhere?
No. All names are generated in your browser with JavaScript. Nothing you type is uploaded. Only when you click Check .com does your browser open the ICANN lookup page for that single domain.
