Choose a Shop Name That Customers Will Love and Remember
Last week, I was having chai with my neighbor who wanted to start a tiffin service. “I’ll just use my surname – Sharma’s Tiffin,” he said. I smiled and asked, “How many Sharma Tiffins do you already see on Swiggy and Zomato?” That made him think. Today, his business, “MomWaaliFeeling,” gets orders from all over his area. Let me share some simple tips to help you pick a name that makes your business unique.
Why Your Business Name Makes a Big Difference
Your business name is like your shop’s personality. It’s what people remember, what they tell their friends about, and what they search for online. Just like you remember ‘Paper Boat’ drinks instead of just another ‘Indian Beverages Ltd’, your customers should quickly recognize your shop’s name.

1. Make It Mean Something Special
Your name should tell your shop’s story. Think about these things:
- What makes your business different?
- What feeling do you want customers to get?
- What will make people smile when they hear it?
- Is it easy to remember?
Quick Tip: Write down ten words that describe your business. Then, try mixing these words in different ways to create something new.
2. Keep It Simple and Clear
Many new business owners try to sound very fancy. But the best names are usually simple:
- Easy to say
- Easy to spell
- Easy to remember
- Clear meaning
- No confusion with other shops
3. Make It Future-Ready
Think about tomorrow when choosing your name today:
- Will it work when your business grows?
- Can you use it for different products?
- Will it work on social media?
- Is the website name available?

4. Add Some Warmth
Indian customers love businesses that feel personal and warm. Your name should feel friendly:
- Use words that make people feel good
- Connect with local culture
- Show your business’s heart
- Make it inviting for customers
5. Test Your Name Before Finalizing
Before you decide, check these things:
- Say it out loud to 10 different people
- Ask them to spell it
- See if they remember it the next day
Check if it’s available on:
Website domains
