Four steps to naming your immigration business
This four-step process will help you name your immigration business. In this example, I’m creating a name for an immigration business that is catchy, professional, simple, easy to remember and brandable.
Here’s each step I took in crafting these business names.

Here’s a quick checklist you can run your ideas through to help shorten your list of name:
- Is the name simple and easy to remember?
- Is the name easy to read and say aloud?
- Is the name different from competitors?

#3) Get some feedback
You’ll now have a list of 3-6 great immigration business names and you can start to ask potential customers or people working in the industry for feedback (your target audience). Avoid feedback from family and friends, are more likely to praise all your ideas and they aren’t your customer.
Be sure to ask questions like:
- What first comes to mind when you first hear the name?
- How would you spell it?
With you’re customer feedback you can now ask yourself is the name still relevant? and did it represent your business how you intended?
My customer feedback:
ImmiGroup
The words are cleverly combined to produce a unique and professional name.
ImmiCouncil
The name is short, simple, easy to remember and brandable.
Legal Guide
The name is simple but conveys professionalism.
Cross the Border
The name is attention-grabbing and easy to remember.
#4) Check It’s available
At this point, it’s good to have at least three great immigration business names on your list, in case your any of your names are already taken. You can do a quick Business Name Search online to find out if you’re name is available within your country/state, also be sure to search if the name is also available for Trademark and Domain name Registration.
Competitor Name Analysis
To help you brainstorm potential business names, let’s take a look at three successful immigration businesses and break down why and how they’ve chosen to name their business and why it works for them.
UK Immigration Advice Ltd. Is a very straightforward name that clearly points out what the business does. People looking for immigrations advice will not hesitate to pick this business over others because of the clarity it its name.
Richmond Chambers Immigration Barristers achieves a personal connection with customers by having the founder’s name in the business name. This helps to increase trustworthiness and customer loyalty. The name is also professional, simple and easy to remember.
Sunrise Solicitors sounds very professional and is also easy to remember and brand. The words also rhyme making this name attention grabbing and unique. The name has worked for this business because it chooses a professional yet simple naming approach.
5 Tips for naming your immigration business
The ideal business name should be simple, memorable and convey a meaning all at the same time. Here are my 5 tips to keep in mind when developing your business names.
1. Do a Competitor Analysis
Doing a competitor analysis as your first step will save you a lot of time in the future, knowing what names to avoid and understanding why and how your competitors business name words for them will help you in forming your own business names. When analyzing competitors think about:
- What business or product values are they conveying in their business name? How does that work for them?
- Is there a trend in how these businesses are naming themselves? It’s best to avoid sounding like “just another one of those businesses”.
- Who does it best? Why does it work and how can I produce a better name?
2. Focus on Naming your Business not Describing it.
A typical pitfall most businesses run into is describing their business name too literally, using overused terms. A more effective business name should convey to customers your businesses and product values at a deeper level. Try name your business in a way that has a story behind it.
Let’s take for example an immigration business business named “Find New Home Consultants”.
Literally, the name suggests that the business helps people find new homes. On a deeper level, this name points to the fact that this business helps immigrants settle and live legally in a foreign country.
3. How to make a more memorable name
Creating a memorable business name is the first step in getting into a customers mind and is also a task that’s easier said than done. Your business name should aim to stop a customer in their tracks and give an extra thought on your product among your wave of competitors. Some tips to create a memorable name would be:
- Use rhythmic pronunciation or alliteration.
- Try using a word that wouldn’t be relevant when out of context .
- Keep it short and simple.
4. Try purchasing a Brandable business name
Brandable business names are names that are non-sensical but read and are pronounced well. They often use letter patterns of Vowel/Consonant/Vowel as these word structures are typically short, catchy and easy to say and remember. For example, some brandable immigration business names could be:
- Nuvane Consultancy
- Alomos Immigration Services
- Nurilo Immigration Agency
You can find a full list of Brandable business names at Domainify.com
5. Avoid combining words just to create a unique name.
Another mistake business owners typically make is creating bad word combinations when they find out that their business name idea is already taken. For example, John names his business Bumble Immigration and finds out it’s already taken. Because he’s already decided this is what he’ll name his business he tries to opt for similar sounding names like BumbillImmigration, Bumbleration or BummbleImmigration.
You can see how these ideas are a step backward as they are not catchy, easily pronounceable or memorable. In these situations, we suggest starting from scratch and trying the tips we mentioned previously.
