How unique is your name?

August 11, 2016 by Adam Lang Leave a Comment

I have no idea, but here’s a quick trick. Head over to Google Trends and type in a few of the brand names you are considering. Google will display search volume for each name entered. In the end, it’s safe to assume that the names with less search volume are more unique.
