Bellmore Associates

Names on hand

Short, literal, and already in your customers' heads.

We do not publish a list. Each name is offered to the few companies it suits, one conversation at a time. These are the kinds we hold.

The kinds

Trade and town

A service plus a place, the way people search for a plumber, a dentist or a landscaper near them. Most useful to a firm that already leads in that town.

The product's own name

The plain word for a thing a company makes or sells, often a better front door than the corporate site for that one line.

Service phrases

Two or three words that describe exactly what a firm does. Easy to say on the phone, easy to put on a truck.

Industry terms

The words a trade uses for itself. Of most value to an association, a supplier or a firm that wants to be seen as the reference.

What we look for in a name

  • It is a .com. Customers assume it, and email typed from memory goes there.
  • It spells the way it sounds, with no hyphens and no numbers.
  • A real business already trades under those words, so the name has an obvious home.
  • It carries no trademark that belongs to someone else.

If you have a specific address in mind, put it in the first field of the contact form. Kristen will tell you whether we hold it and, if we do, what it would cost.
