Up there is also “Spacr” or “Spacely”. Then next is naming your company after some famous scientist or engineer. Then adding X to it. Then naming it a division of an existing company. Then naming it after a living person. Then naming it something new.
I think the most creative name would likely just be a UUID.

- tzs 1y agoSeriously, I wish each company would use a UUID as an alternate name. Same for each programming language, software project, and so on. The UUID should be on all their web pages. People who write articles or blogs about them should use the normal name but somewhere should have a table giving the UUIDs of the things they mention. Then when people are trying to find pages about things with names that are terrible for searching like X or Go they could use the UUID.
