Domain name generator

Coming up with domain name ideas can at times be challenging. Some of us are great programmers or writers, but most people aren’t good at creating brand names. Luckily, there are a number of great domain name generators out there that can help. Here are my top three picks (in no particular order):

1. Web 2.0 Name Generator
This tool generates great Web 2.0 names. What’s great about these kind of domains is they are generic, so if your original site plan doesn’t work out you can always use the name for something else. Unfortunately, this generator does not check availability.

2. Bust a Name
This domain name generator has a lot of options to play with. It lets you add multiple words, prefixes, suffixes, and more. Besides returning only available names, it can also show domains for sale.

3. Net Substance
Net Substance is designed to be both a brand name creator and a domain generator. Just one query will bring back hundreds of results. Some generated names are better than others, however, and you might have to play with the settings a bit to get decent ideas.
