Brand Name
 

I am trying to come up with a BRAND Name and I have been drawing blanks
Like Pioneer Alpine, Blaupunkt (Whatever that means) Kenwood, Xtrons, Apple, JVC etc etc.

Sean's Unit or the DD is not easy to remember and not enduring ! I need to have something nice and Memorable.
Any input would be appreciated !

We will put this to a vote later .

Sean take a look here. http://www.ipo.gov.uk

Register on line from start to finishing takes around 6 months. I registered Veltech for our tv brand cost is around £140 I think, consider a logo too.

If you search on the site you can see brands already taken but it does help in formulating your own.

crafty advert:D:D

Not really we are a trade seller in the main, the public are a nightmare ;)

Great But I Am trying to get a NAME , FOr me ! LOL Ideas !

Canucktech ?

I decided to translate double din into various languages for the best sounding name.

Japanese came out best with Jū kensō however you could possibly cut it down to kenso if that's available

Two come to mind...

'SUPERSONIC' - Although widely used as a name, I'm sure there is no Supersonic Car Radios.

Another is 'WRS' an abbreviation for 'World Radio Systems'. Given your international supply, quite apt.

Ciao.

..........


Lol

Nope, already taken...:(

http://www.kenso.com.my/

just combine it to JuKenso then :P

Make A Play on it , JUKE (As in Juke Box)

Yo for got the Eh!

Not here ! I like it !

JUKE has been trademarked according to that ipo gov site

Blaupunkt means blue dot. Ever notice that there is (usually) a blue dot on the merchandise?

An early Audi favourite in Blaupunkt before they went BOSE and now B&O, still do good stuff

Sorry - Canucktech - eh? :)

How about Viking Audio?

How about "Boson" after the Higgs Boson particle recently proved to exist by scientist at CERN?

Its a game changer, similar to that latest DD units and the customer service offered......... :D

Headline Audio. Just googled it and didn't find anything :D

How about 'NAES' Audio...? Sean backwards... ;)

NB. Pronounced - 'NICE'.... ;)

Its generally known as Blue Spot.

In the sixties and seventies the boxes for their car radios had an English translation as well as Blaupunkt.

The German / English translation is primarily Blue Spot although Blue Dot is also a possible translation.

Dave T

You could use my old on-line name.
BlueEcho.

You are of course missing the obvious one! ;)

Yes whats the matter with RadioGuy

My thoughts exactly! ;)

Ooooooo I like that

Once we get a List I Will open another thread and we will put it to a vote !

BO as in Body Odor ! ?

Wow , Thanks and Boson I Like too !

Thats good too, Headline or Headliner?

Really ?

I Suppose its as Good as any .

Yep, Blue Spot is how I remember it from many years ago.

That is nice too !

It seems the most successful brands have names that have nothing to really do with the Product

If i said I am going out to buy an APPLE, you wouldn't immediately think an Iphone !

Obvious one ? ?

Already mentioned in post 32!

Ah Okay

I Thought so but wasnt sure !

As said it doesn't matter what you like if it doesn't pass intellectual properties it is a non starter, so go on that site and look and even then they can reject it and after that companies have a right to reject, so if you picked Bosent for example Bose will be aware and can put in a case to refuse it. Just trying to give you a heads up really having been there done it ;)

Apple is now the number one brand in the world ! Even bigger than Coca Cola . Maybe I should just use a fruit 1
Like the GRAPE or the MANGO or PEAR or PEACH

Leatherwood audio.
Leatherwood Sound Systems.

HI Parker

I understand , thanks

That is Nice too!

Sorry Sean, look at my Post #22 again, I forgot to add something earlier, just in case it is said wrong.... ;)

That is cool ! I Will note it on the OP .

The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences awarded this year's Nobel Prize in Physics to scientists Francois Englert and Peter Higgs on Tuesday for their 1964 postulation of the existence of the Higgs boson. Scientists confirmed in July 2012 the existence of the so-called God particle, which is what gives matter its mass.

The July 2012 discovery of the particle in the most powerful particle accelerator in the world, the Large Hadron Collider near Geneva, Switzerland, has been billed as one of the biggest scientific achievements of the last 50 years.

Brian's light oak and chrome Treble DIN unit :getmecoat:
http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/g...brian/1015.jpg

1015 tastic :D

Brian :D

Does that Plug Straight in or does it need an Adapter? Does it have IPOD Interface? Where does the SD Card go ?

Canada Kid:p:

Love the KID part ! I feel so "Young ! " !

Hi, folks.
I have some suggestion. I come whit RUDD (Rover Unit Double Din). I know that is some sort of fish, but any way. Or ROVUNDOU.
Regard to all.

What about using a ancient Greek name ( like Nike = Victory) , I had though about Thalia (meaning festivity), Angelia (message) or Philia (friendship).

1. Panaphonics
2. Magnetbox
3. Sorny
4. Buzz Radio

OK, I have nothing constructive to add. Some excellent ideas so far, though.

Edit - I like Tesla but that car guy probably has it taken.

I rather like Viking Audio.

A few more for the mix

Vanguard Audio
VoxAudio
Smartmedia

and finally RGA, works on two levels ;).

Wow Those are GREAT!
RGA , RCA , RadioGuy Audio

Revor Audio

Thanks (My thank you button is dead ! ) triumph Added above !

RGbeats.
As in Radioguybeats (as in dr dre)

SDD Audio

SDD + Seans Double Dins

Viking Audio ain't bad. Lot of the others either aren't "snappy" enough or bring the reaction WTF more than anything else. Some of them the unit wouldn't be big enough to get the name on it :D

But SNAPPY is SNAPPY !

You want a name that relects quality . . . . I'm afraid Snappy doesn't do that, sounds like the noise it'll make when you try to clip the unit in! Other Steve's suggestion SDD Audio is good, with the added bonus SDD creates logo possibilities.

NWA (Night Wing audio) :D

Rap fans should get that one......

I also like 'Viking' as a brand name but wouldn't use 'Audio' in the brand name, no matter what other word accompanied it. To me it suggests the manufacturer is unsure of the product's ability to sell itself, so feels the need to tell their potential customers what it does, within the brand name.
Think of all the 'big' brand names and what do you see?
Panasonic, Samsung, Clarion, Kodak, Apple, Sony...Viking? It fits, simple, and no mention of what the product is, or does.

I think VoxAudio would be out from the outset if Vox Amplification heard about it.

I have the name Ten-4 in my head for some reason. It doesn't fit in with the 'single name' concepts but I thought it had a 'ring' to it, if you know what I mean. Perhaps with Roman numerals as a logo...XIV

sorry, Viking is a non starter

http://www.vikingaudio.com/

:getmecoat:

I was also thinking ANDY as in ANDROID

Or CARDROIDS?

Doh!!!! http://andyaudio.com/

:getmecoat::getmecoat::getmecoat::getmecoat:


Double Doh!!!

http://www.mycardroid.com/

Have we had Phoenix Audio yet? :shrug:

Already in use.

Or if you're fitting it in a V8 . . . . HEMIROIDS :D

Janico.
The phonetic spelling of an ancient mesipotamian Horned God.

Hahahaha ! Thats Funny ! but People will think they are only for Hemi's !

Thanks BM ~!

Janico's taken.
Let the brainstorming continue :)

cruiser ! ?

Oober. Urban slang for Uber.

SCS. Seans Car Sound.

Unfortunately a rather well know brand name in the UK.

http://www.scs.co.uk/?gclid=CJ6ii6qviLoCFVDItAodj04Aig

Oh. How about Essay as in SA Sean Audio.
I'm running dry now :)

Maybe its just me but I think a brand name shouldn't have abstract relationship with its product or founder. Acronyms can help with this e.g. IKEA. Or ABBA. I also think 4 letters or 5 max is best.

So some link back to Sean Moore and your product. I'm not good with this stuff (I'm terrible at cryptic crosswords) but how about

Sean Moore Car Audio - SEMCA

Or Sean Moore ICE - SEMI, although thats mixing 2 acronyms.

I'm sure there are better examples if you play around with it.

Also do you want it to refer just to your new Android unit? Or all your car audio? Or all your products?

How about Tourer Tunes? :P

Thanks for all the effort BM

MagicBass
TrueTunes
TrueTones
SouthMount (Get it Sean!)
SoundStomp
AutoSync

That's it Im done lol

LOL Got it , A Little S and M never hurt anyone ! Well, I guess maybe it does ! Not that I would know.

How about SIDDS, Seans In-car Double Din Solutions? :getmecoat:

Its poor I know but I'm trying lol :D

Starley and Sutton.
My personal favourite.
This company made the Rover Safety Bicycle in 1887.
This is the origin of the Rover car brand.
My searches suggest the name is no longer registered as a business.
It sounds very British. It has historical significance and rolls of the tongue quite well :)

Woolley.
In honour of Richard Woolley.

Longboat would also be kinda cool :)

Or even R4T. Get It? Heh.

I was thinking of your Canadian roots.... That's just your mind haha:D

Hm Radioguy For ?????

Or ??

The in-house name for the design that became the 75-zt was R40.
So R4T.
Hmm. That spells Rat in 'text speak' Never mind.
Then again it could be seen as 'edgy' I suppose :)

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Okay

But I Want the Brand for Other Models As well. Like BMW , www.bmwradios.com is me too !

I think Ill prepare the POLL tonight

Ohhhhh!
Moore then. Works on a few levels.

Okay the Poll is Open !
