Real-life store name ideas and examples


For more inspiration, check out these eCommerce websites—all built with Wix—that features some wicked store names.



Nurturing Nature Cards


Nurture Nature Cards takes a literal, yet endearing approach to its store name. Its name reflects the nature of its signature products: 100% plantable gift cards that bloom into Swan River Daisies.





Cordina Hair


A popular, yet timeless formula for naming a business: using your own name to reflect that your business is an extension of yourself. Cordina Hair is aptly named after its founder, Yanika Cordina, who invented a new, heatless way to curl hair while on a personal mission to keep her own hair healthy.





Altered States


Altered States's name reflects the mission of its brand: to encapsulate the essence of urban culture and blend sophistication with high-end fashion. Altered States aims to alter the face of fashion with high-quality hoodies featuring one-of-a-kind designs.





Tips for creating a store name


There’s a lot to consider when building an eCommerce website, choosing eCommerce templates and figuring out what exactly is an online store.


Selecting the right name for your business is paramount. It's the first impression you make on your audience. A well-chosen name communicates your brand identity, values, and purpose. It's the pillar of your brand's foundation, influencing customer perception, market positioning, and ultimately, your success in the competitive landscape

Daniele Pitkowski, Product Marketing Manager - Alternative Flows at Wix.com



Learning how to name a business is one of the first things you’ll need to tackle when starting your business. Here are some things to keep in mind when brainstorming names.



01. Reflect your brand and keep it personal


Your business name may reflect what you're selling, or it may not. Either way, it should clearly communicate your brand identity. The name you pick can describe the types of products you intend to sell or be connected to something meaningful to your brand. Ideally, it will do both. A great example of this is Wix merchant Izzy Wheels.


The store, founded by sisters and artists Ailbhe and Izzy Keane, offers stylish and colorful wheel covers for wheelchairs. The brand is named after Izzy, who initially sought a creative solution for personalizing her own wheelchair.




To create a personal online store name, start by considering words that reflect your brand's essence and values. Consider using a nickname, pet name or your own name. Combine elements like your product type or a unique feature. Incorporating personal touches or storytelling elements can make the name more engaging and relatable to customers.



02. Be creative


Choosing a creative name for your online store can set you apart from competitors and attract more customers. Think outside the box for product offerings, marketing strategies and customer engagement.


Consider running interactive social media campaigns or introducing customizable products. Implement creative storytelling techniques in your brand communication to build a deeper connection with your customer base, making your business memorable and unique. Creativity in naming is a skill that can be cultivated with practice and experimentation.



03. Make it memorable


Some of the best (and most memorable) online store names are short: Amazon, WayFair, Zappos, and Chewy, to name a few. Long names can be hard to remember and may get cut off in some online spaces like social media and search result headlines.


The above business names share another common trait: they don't list a specific product or product type. Jeff Bezos, Amazon's founder, specifically chose the name Amazon—paying homage to the large river in South Africa—because he wanted his product line to be just as limitless and expansive as the river. Similarly, you should consider names that are broad enough to grow with your business, particularly if you plan to expand beyond your initial product offering.



04. Keep your online store name simple


Don't forget to say the name you’re considering out loud. Is it easy to pronounce? Does it sound professional and pleasant? Fun fact: Bezos originally wanted to call his company Cadabara, a play on the word “abracadabra.” But not long after, he changed it to Amazon after hearing someone accidentally call it "Cadaver."


Simplicity is key. Choosing a name with an easy spelling and pronunciation, secures quick recognition and recall. A great business name captures attention, evokes emotion, and sticks in the mind. It should be unique yet memorable, reflecting your brand's essence and values.

Daniele Pitkowski, Product Marketing Manager - Alternative Flows at Wix.com



05. Make sure your domain name is available


You should always check to see if your business name is available as a domain name when you're learning how to make a website from scratch. You can use Wix’s free Domain Name Search to check availability and see if there are any potential conflicts with other businesses. Searching for domain names can additionally reveal alternatives and name variations.


For example, let's say you sell video games and want the name gamestore.com. That domain isn't currently available but "gamesuperstore.net" and "gamestores.biz" are both free (as of the date of this post). Also, worth nothing: Wix users get a free one-year domain name voucher with select Wix Premium plans.



06. Check legal restrictions


In the U.S., each state has its own set of rules and regulations for business names, so it pays to do your research before landing on a name you love. For example, most states have rules around using business entity identifiers like Inc. and LLC.


In other cases, your name can't be misleading or too similar to another existing business; you need to acknowledge the significance of intellectual property. It can't imply that your company is part of the federal government. Certain words, like FBI or CIA, are off-limits (for obvious reasons). The US Patent and Trademark Office database can further help you determine if your name has been trademarked.



Top online store name generators


We've touched on a few different ways to start researching online store names above, but here are a few helpful tools worth using. It can be helpful (and fun) to mix and match the results from multiple tools.



Wix's free store name generator


  • Wix Store Name Generator - Wix’s free tool lets you search by keyword and industry type, then produces dozens of creative suggestions in seconds. You can get suggestions specifically tailored to your main business, as well as any podcasts, apps, or other properties that you manage.

  • Namelix - Namelix creates business names based on name style (e.g., names involving real words or alternate spelling), the level of randomness you’re seeking, and brand info.

  • Looka - Looka accepts keywords or abstract ideas (like “premium” and “ambitious”) to generate store names. It additionally lets you specify the desired length of your name.

  • NameSnack - NameSnack generates more than 100 short, brandable business names and immediately tells you whether the name is also available as a domain.

  • Behind the Name – This one’s not specifically a business name generator, but it’s a great brainstorming tool. It’s a searchable database of over 25,000 names from different cultures, periods, and mythologies. Search by first name, surname, or find names by searching for criteria like usage, meaning, or origin.
