Ask HN: Help picking a name for my app

3 点作者 sebastian大约 15 年前
I'm developing a forex social webapp. There are two names that I like but unfortunately the .com isn't available for one of them however I was able to get two alternative names.<p>I want to show you the names and ask you to help me pick one from the available options. They are:<p>pipsandchips.com<p>forex is all about making pips. pips and chips sounds kind of like fish and chips and, I think it sounds kind of catchy and fun<p>tradebook.com<p>due to the social nature of my app I think the name would work really well. The .com isn't available but I was able to purchase tradebookhq.com and tradebookapp.com<p>What do you guys recommend?<p>Thanks!

I like pips and chips. I had no idea what forex was, but now that I know, it kinda makes sense. Chips like coins/money, pips, I have no idea why they use that word.<p>tradebook doesn't have as memorable a name.<p>pips and chips also has a somewhat british ring to it, and with the right design can really play across the line of old-school established english financial system (king and country and all that), and a more modern playful perspective.<p>I like it!

I don't know much about the lingo in the Forex world, but pipsandchips.com is kinda catchy. But it might be an issue if you ever tried expanding the network/app to other niches of, say, day traders.<p>I'm just gonna share a few that popped into my head, not knowing the lingo or real purpose of the site: getpipped.com igetpips(or pipped).com pippers.com showmeyourpips.com i-pips.com pippr.com pipster.com

Thanks for all the feedback. I think I'm going to go with pips and chips. It definitely sounds a lot more catchy and perhaps easier to remember.

I would imagine that tradebook is a trademark of Bloomberg.
