Welcome to The Name Catcher. We are a naming agency, creating
bespoke names for startups and established brands.
What we do
Creating a new name can be one of the most important and challenging stages in the life of a business. Does it have to say everything? Can it say nothing? And when you think you’ve cracked it, you have the frustration of discovering the name's already been taken.
At The Name Catcher we understand the secret to unlocking that knockout name. We do this by looking for a deeper understanding of your business, evolving a brief, and then establishing a unique naming strategy. From this starting point we can create names for your business that won’t just stand for something, they’ll stand out from the crowd, and make it easier for you to secure that all important domain.
And we won't leave you holding that new born name with nowhere to go. We believe design plays an integral role in conveying the essence of a name. With years of experience working with some of London's finest design talent, we can work with you and a designer to complete the journey, turning your name into your brand.
If you want to give your business the start in life it deserves, or if you feel it's in need of a refresh, get in touch and we’ll set up a chat with The Name Catcher.

The Name Catcher
I’ve been an advertising creative for nearly thirty
years. A journey that has taken me from junior creative with US agency Chiat/Day to Creative
Director at Saatchi & Saatchi London.
I now freelance as part of a creative team for
some of London's best advertising agencies.
Naming is my secret passion., to me it's the ultimate creative challenge, condensing the essence of a business into just one or two words.
