- Search engine / AppStore availability – Is your name already frequently found in popular search engines and AppStores?
- Social media availability – In which social networks is your name already used?
- Hidden potentials and stumbling blocks – Does your name contain (foreign-language) terms?
- Sound – What are the sound characteristics of your name? Is it a hard or a soft name? What feelings does it evoke?
