How to pick a company name?
Choosing a name for your business requires a blend of creativity and compliance with government regulations. Below, we outline key aspects to consider before picking your company's name.
Unique
Your company name is a crucial part of your brand identity. Therefore, it must be distinct from other businesses and easily recognisable to your customers.
Non-offensive
Ensure that your company name is free of any offensive connotations. This step is especially crucial for businesses aiming to operate on a global scale.
Non-sensitive
If your business name includes "sensitive words" that suggest an association with a governmental or local authority, the registration process may take longer as it will need to be reviewed by the government.
Limited or Ltd.
As a limited company, you are required to include "Limited" (or its abbreviation, "Ltd.") at the end of your name. However, in certain cases, you may be allowed to omit "Limited" from your company name.
