It is a social space (we don't have enough of those apps right)
I have a few names.
#1 Is made up word that is easy to say and a bit related to a real word I would like to use (but another app is using the real word). If you say it most people would be able to spell it when searching on app/play store
Though the made up word a few people have said it vaguely reminds them of a male body part/something dirty. One person said it could be name for gay hookup app.
If you google the made up word there are less than 75k results and nothing specific or dirty/naughty.
I wonder if the possible vague connotation would prevent people from downloading or effect branding?
#2 Is an existing word but missing an "e" (think flickr). Easy to say, can get any domain with alternative spelling (but .com)
Only problem is when searching people would most likely include the "e"
Could also use full name also though for that google returns 150m results. While there is no other app with the exact name, there are a decent amount who have it in there description. Might hurt finding it in app/play store?
#3 Same name as a generic product but with different first letter but sounds the same. Only 600k results on google, most for the generic product. Might sound too much like pure chat app, and to lite sounding for the app, not convey meaning of the app. (Though one can chat in the app).
Thoughts on what you considered when naming an app? Or thoughts on what my thinking is (and if wrong) would be great.
