Website Name Feedback

[mikerocky]

Hi all, I'm wanting some honest feedback on a website & business name a client has come to us with to build an ecommerce store.

The company at present specialise in supplying tablet pc's but are looking to expand their range in the future.

The current name is Tidai, the new proposed name is Cintamani.
Feedback on both would be great and suggestions are welcome


Thanks,

Mike

TBH it sounds lke an Italian deli! - plus, I can imagine he will spend a lot of time on the phone spelling it out to people who want to email, look at website etc.

I agree, The name just doesnt sound right. It sounds like a state in the USA..

I thought maybe its memorable however ive actually forgotten it during typing this message.

Just my 2c

Agree with the spelling it out issue.
And it also sounds like the name of late Kim Jong Il's dog

Would that be on ice?

Cintamani sounds more like an alcoholic drink than a supplier of tablet pc's! Or even a supplier of Italian menswear, imo.

Not sure if this suggestion is any better but how about Tabaas.co.uk - short for Tablet and Accessory Specialists. ?

I'm got an ideal short name they could use, how about dti.co.uk or civi.co.uk

 

[jayfcf]

tapca.co.uk is available

tablets and pc accessories

The current name is Tidai, the new proposed name is Cintamani.

I agree with the others here. The name's a bit off, as the wits pointed out, it sounds like the name of a U.S. state or that of the late Korean dictator's pooch.

But, here's the thing. If the new name is personal or has some personal significance to you, go for it. Any brand name can be marketed successfully if you do it right. Otherwise, just go for shorter, snappy, easy-to-remember names.
