Combine Software Consulting

Combine has business relevance, and rolls of the tongue. Also you can model the logo after the half life series combine logo

or not, however it is a strong root name.

What is your target audience ?
Software for small enterprises? Big? Corporate ? Gov ?

We're doing Android mobile apps. The target audience will be other businesses from small to big who may-or-may-not possess software development competencies. That being said, we don't want our name to shoe-box us into a niche. Often times a small business will find that their product/service has unanticipated uses, or that a once-thought minor product/service offering are driving the bottom-line. Changing business names is a nightmare =)

What end-markets are you addressing? In other words, what business do your customers do, and why are they hiring you? (for example, your end-markets could be game developers, IT finance depts, vanilla corporate IT, agriculture tech, construction tech, GPS tech, etc. etc.)

I answered part of your question in my above post. Businesses hire us because they lack core-competencies in developing Android software and cannot justify the overhead/start-up costs of developing developing said competencies for short-medium term projects.

Since you haven't chosen a winning name yet, does that mean we should continue to throw more names in, or are you waiting till a certain date/time before you make your decision? I didn't want to post multiple times, but if my first suggestions weren't what you're looking for then I can come up with more.

We want to decide on a name by the end of Sunday this week. So far I've picked out a few names which I really like which I'll forward to my business partner and await his response (we both have to agree). I'll update the OP with the deadline.

Guidelines on what makes a good name

1. Should stand out;
Any name can stand out with the right attitude
<font size=4>COMPUTRODE KINETIX LABS</font>
2. Make a promise or tell a story;
Name suggests motion, science, and, vaguely, some sort of penetration.
3. Suggest a feature or benefit;
Will depend on the customer's stance on penetration.
4. Provokes people, attracts attention, takes chances;
Check. Check. Check.
5. Easy to pronounce and spell;
We can clear this hurdle with a campaign of shock and awe, an all out media blitz of celebrity endorsements and flashy, intrusive internet advertising. Also,

COMPUTRODE-KINETIX-CON 2012

Additionally the name must be unique:

* Itself or a similar name is not in-use;
* Does not remind you of an existing company;
* Domain name available;

I wouldn't worry about any of those.

Thank you BroOd =)
