#1) Brainstorm your name ideas
It’s wise to think about words that you tend to think of when you’re looking at the concept of tutoring. For my choices, I looked for education-related words as well as those that convey a sense of a safe, comfortable place where students can get some extra help. Terms like “mentor” and “helper” give the idea that someone will be looking out for the student, while concepts like “holistic” and “fostering” promote ideas of a comfortable space.

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 tutoring 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:

This name brings a fun vibe into the atmosphere of learning to make it more approachable.

Competitor Name Analysis
To help you brainstorm potential business names, let’s take a look at three successful tutoring businesses and break down why and how they’ve chosen to name their business and why it works for them.
Brainfuse is a name that depicts a high-tech atmosphere, which is something many of today’s youth are interested in. It also gives the idea that the business is modern and capable of holding their attention.
Yup is a business name that is simple, straightforward and effective. On first glance, ‘Yup’ can be quite a simple and bland name. Though, once you learn their mission statement of providing children math help 24/7. The name begins to convey the values of their product. A simple and effective way of learning and communicating maths to their students.
Growing Stars is a business name that conveys a business that specializes in youth tutoring. The name also speaks on how this institution values and sees each of their students.
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 tutoring terms like teach, tutor and learn. 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 tutoring business named “Growing Stars”.
This name provides the sense that the students are already great. They’re stars. However, with the help of the tutoring company, they can be stars that are reaching even greater heights.
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 (Assignment Assistance, Happy Helpers)
- Try using a word that wouldn’t be relevant when out of context (Aid For Arithmetic – Quite literally refers to help in math, which doesn’t have any context other than tutoring.)
- 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 tutoring business names could be:
- Bella Tutoring
- Depend Tutoring
- Memo Tutoring
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 Help With Assignments 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 AssignHelp, HelpAssign or HelpMeAssignment.
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.
