Hello Fellow Warrior!

I am in the process of creating a new business and need some help developing a catchy name.

My company is based in the vitamin/supplement sector and will act primarily as a manufacturer/dropshipper/private labeler of various dietary supplements and health products.

I'd like to name to be comprehensive and act as an effective umbrella name for various DBA's that will be created in due time.

Some of the names that we've come up with so far:
-HealthStar Global
-VitaBrand International
-GaiaCorp
-HBD (Health Brand Direct)

If anyone can help me come up with a name that is not taken, that hopefully has an available domain, and that I like... I will hook you up with a free bottle of any dietary supplement that I manufacture or $20, you choose.

I know there are a lot of creative people on here, so thanks in advance for all of the wonderful suggestions.

    Can offer some input, if you don't mind. And I'll try to come up with
    some names.

    Not being sarcastic with the comments. K?

    -HealthStar Global - Sounds like an MLM

    -VitaBrand International - Don't think "Brand" should be used.

    -GaiaCorp - I would double check on "Gaia" because I've seen that somewhere as a company name. Don't know if it matters or not. But this is a possibility for me at least.

    -HBD (Health Brand Direct) - HBD's sounds like something you catch and is undesirable.

    If you're going to do this: "manufacturer/dropshipper/private labeler of various dietary supplements and health products, " then I would avoid using vitamins or any derivative of vitamins in the name. You mention dietary supplements plus the vague 'health products.' So...

    Ok, forget Gaia in my opinion, too damn many gaia's out there. Here...

    A million gaia's - Be different

    I think I'd use something that helped identify what the company does which will help people have a good idea of what you offer just by seeing the name of your company. I don't know if that's the best way to go, or not. If you want a creative name, then it seems that's something you should try to come up with because you're the one who has to live with it.

    YourLabel Health Products
    PrivateLabel Diet & Health
    PrivateLabel Health Support
    PrivateLabel Supplement Source

    Yes, I'm stuck on private label.

    East Coast Speed Labs (oh man... sorry)

    Supplement Outsource Direct (just don't call it, SOD. British negative slang, plus someone might think they can buy superoxide dismutase from you.) Sorry again... it's late.

    PrivateLabel Outsource Direct .. damn, don't call it PLOD. LOL People will think you're slow.

    I give up.

    Ken,

    Great input. I actually had a good time reading your "stream of thought" as you pieced together names.

    I was trying to stay away from Private Label since I already have a company for that called VitaMix Laboratories (vitamixlabs.com). The name should be a bit more ambiguous yet catchy so that people know i'm dealing with the manufacturing/marketing/private labeling/dropshipping/etc. -of- health products/supplements/vitamins/etc.

    I just don't want it to be pinned on one service.

    Thanks for wonderful ideas.

      Well I tend to check the dot com is available at the same time as coming up with a name for the things I do.

      So you could try

      Vitamins For Profit or maybe Moneymaking Vitamins.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.
