Welcome to The Name Catcher.

I create bespoke names for startups and established brands.

A great name should never sit quietly in the corner of the page, it should stand out, stand for something and take on a life of its own.

 

Finding that killer name is 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 just when you think you’ve cracked it, the frustration of discovering that perfect name has already been taken!

​

I believe the secret to unlocking a knockout name lies a little deeper than just an understanding of a business. With a background in advertising, I know where to look for uniqueness, for those differentiators hidden in the depths of a business's story and personality - the stuff you don't find in a business plan. It's this approach that will inform the naming strategy, and from there I can create a name for your business that won't just stand for something, it will stand out, and be unique enough to avoid domain name rejection.

​

I'm not an agency, I'm a freelance creative, so totally flexible and able to work in a way that suits you. You may want to do the naming yourself and need a few to get you started, or you just want the whole process off your hands, so you can focus on the one million other things you need to do. You name the terms, I'll focus on the names:)

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 - it's the ultimate creative challenge, condensing the essence of a whole business into just one or two words.
