The short answer

Before you commit to a name, check that it is easy to say and spell, available in your state registry, not too close to a registered trademark, available as a domain and on social media, and readable on signs.

How it works

Tick each item. If any availability check fails, adjust the name before you register anything.

Common questions

Do I need a trademark?

Not to operate, but trademark searches reduce risk. Ask an attorney about registration.
