#1) Brainstorm your name ideas
Start by brainstorming what words could fit into your business name. In my name ideas, I used words like urban, hip, exclusive, empowered, linked and networking. These words speak of club activities, as well as of the advantages that members get to enjoy upon joining. Your goal here is to create a list of words or names that come to mind when thinking about your business.
If you’re stuck on words to use, try our business name generator.
Here are my name ideas after brainstorming:
#2) Shortlist your ideas
Once you’ve developed a list of possible names, do an analysis of your ideas. Remove any names that could be hard to remember, spell or speak aloud. Keep names that are brandable, sound great, are memorable and communicate your brand values, product or service to your target audience.
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?
- Does the name convey a relevant meaning?
- Does the name avoid overused words or cliches?

#3) Get some feedback
You’ll now have a list of 3-6 great social club 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:
This name conveys a fun-loving group and it tells exactly what the club does.
This name conveys emotional appeal for people who are feeling somewhat lonely and looking for a connection.
This name conveys simplicity, it instantly shows what the business is all about.
#4) Check It’s available
At this point, it’s good to have at least three great social club 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 social clubs and break down why and how they’ve chosen to name their business and why it works for them.
Veni Vidi Vici Social Club has a name that’s based on the popular Latin phrase “I came, I saw, I conquered.” The name refers to a sense of purpose, a go-getter attitude that may prompt young and ambitious people to find out more about the opportunity or to directly go ahead and join.
Culture in the City provides at least some idea about the focus and the activities of the social club. This is an organization aimed at putting together lectures, performances and other special events that a select group of people can enjoy. Hence, this is a social club with a purpose and a sub-niche that’s announced right from the start.
Culinary Fight Club is a fun and casual name that represents a really fun idea. You probably have guessed already that the social club organizers culinary battles people can attend either as participants or spectators. This is another entity that understand the importance of niche specialization and puts emphasis on it.
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, relying on overused words like social, event, activity, gala, VIP or networking. 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 a real Social Club named Mingle Around.
Notice that no part of the title tells you this is a social club aimed at communication or networking. Instead, you can instantly infer the fact this is a social club for singles who want to meet new people and eventually discover a romantic interest. The goal is achieved in an indirect way, which makes the name interesting and exciting.
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 (Shy Guys, Tech Talk Team, Crazy Lazy Social)
- Try using a word that wouldn’t be relevant when out of context (Living Large in the context of a social club suggests this is an enterprise that targets bohemians and those who know how to enjoy every single moment)
- 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 Social Club names could be:
- Repino Club
- Victorina Social Club
- Operifica Social Club
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 City Professionals 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 ProCity, CityProfs and Profesity.
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.
