As evidenced by many threads on this page, coming up with a name for your product/app is hard. I've read naming guides and did ask family and friends. But I still have no clue what to name my app. Can you help me?
I'm currently developing a web app which lets you create maps of long distance hiking trails, with the abillity to mark your position on it. You can embed the map on your blog, or share a link with an option for followers to get updates on your progress.
All the obvious names like trailmap, trailtracker, etc are already taken.
I thought about trail2home and trailocate.
Every input is highly appreciated!
A few ideas:
Trailpin - trailp.in (available) or Hikepin - .com (available)
Trailstamp - .com (available)
Thanks, I like your ideas!
HikeMaps might be good. It might be useful for SEO when people are searching for "hiking maps"
Hey Angelo, please checkout https://namelix.com/
I like to use leandomainsearch.com for naming my apps. You can enter a keyword such as "hike" and view which domains are available that contain that word. You can sort by domains starting with, and ending with your keyword, and sort by length, popularity, etc
It's not that difficult, and you don't need to read a super guide to understand that the best name for a product/company is the one that is:
In your case, it took me the first read to come up with the first suggestion. Create maps of long-distance hiking trails with the ability to mark your position? Let's make it shorter and take the keywords from it: "maps / long-distance / hiking trails / position". So, something about maps and position. Mapstance.
Mapstance, Inc.
I think what's adding to the difficulty is, when you aren't a native speaker. The feeling for the language, and playing with words isn't easy.
Thanks for your suggestion!

Did you settle on a name?
Hey yes I did. https://staging.hikemark.com/p/about
I haven't figured out how to get the certificate for the subdomain on netlify, though.
OK. Don't know much about netlify, so can't help there. But I would put the name in the page header. See how that looks here. I would have preferred Hikemarks though. This is the font I used.
Thank you very much, I'll do that. Just hadn't have the time, yet.
check this tool. I use this always bustaname.com

As a long distance hiker, I've used hiking apps on the trail. Let me put my trail mind in gear...
Sadly, takeahike.com is taken. You may find an appealing variation.
HikeMarkers.com (sorta like IndieHackers.com)
Trailifier.com
A lot of people have scientific strategies to come up with a name and that's good. The other way to do it is to write down 100 names. Don't stop before you reach one hundred...
You will stop before you reach one hundred and you will have a bunch of amazing names.
