First of all, what are brand names and what types of brand names are there?
A brand name is a word or set of words that identifies and differentiates a company or product from others in the market. Brand names can be of different types, such as descriptive names, abstract names, invented names, founders' names, geographical names, acronym names, among others. Each type of brand name has its own advantages and disadvantages, and the choice of the type of brand name depends on the objectives of the company and the characteristics of the product or service offered.
What makes a good name a good name, and what makes a bad name a bad name?
A good brand name should be easy to remember, easy to pronounce, easy to spell and easy to associate with the product or service it represents. In addition, a good brand name should be distinctive, unique and relevant to the target audience. On the other hand, a bad brand name may be difficult to remember, difficult to pronounce, difficult to spell, difficult to associate with the product or service it represents or the name may have a negative connotation in the target language. A bad brand name can also be confusing, unoriginal and irrelevant to the target audience.
What are the benefits of having a well thought out and designed name?
A good brand name can help a company stand out in the marketplace, differentiate itself from the competition and create a positive image in the consumer's mind. A good brand name can also help a company build a strong and consistent brand identity, which is reflected in all aspects of its business, from the design of its logo to the way it communicates with its customers as it is also part of the verbal identity of a brand. In addition, a good brand name can help a company establish a strong online presence and improve its search engine ranking.

What if we don't take this into account, what could happen?
If a company does not have a good brand name, it may find it difficult to stand out in the marketplace, differentiate itself from the competition and create a positive image in the consumer's mind. In addition, a company without a good brand name may find it difficult to build a strong and consistent brand identity, which can negatively affect its ability to communicate with its customers and establish a strong online presence.
