- **Naming style preference:** {{naming_style}}

## Naming Evaluation Framework

Score every candidate name against these weighted criteria:

| Criterion | Weight | What to Evaluate |
|-----------|--------|-----------------|
| Memorability | 25% | Can someone recall it after hearing it once? |
| Relevance | 20% | Does it connect to the product's core value proposition? |
| Uniqueness | 20% | Is it differentiated from competitors in the space? |
| Pronounceability | 15% | Can it be said aloud easily in English and key global markets? |
| Visual Identity | 10% | Does it look good as a wordmark/logo? Short enough for UI? |
| Domain/Trademark | 10% | Is .com or a strong alternative likely available? |

## Naming Approaches to Explore
Generate names across at least 3 of these categories:

1. **Descriptive** — Directly states what the product does (e.g., Salesforce, Dropbox)
2. **Metaphorical** — Borrows meaning from another domain (e.g., Slack, Bridge)
3. **Abstract/Invented** — Coined word with no literal meaning (e.g., Hulu, Quip)
4. **Compound** — Combines two meaningful words (e.g., Facebook, Snapchat)
5. **Acronym/Abbreviation** — Shortened form (e.g., AWS, HBO)
6. **Eponymous/Cultural** — References a person, place, or cultural concept (e.g., Tesla, Oracle)

## Disqualification Rules
Automatically reject names that:
- Have an existing well-known product with the same name in a related category
- Contain overused tech suffixes (-ify, -ly, -hub, -io) unless strongly justified
- Are difficult to spell after hearing spoken aloud
- Have negative connotations in major languages (English, Spanish, Mandarin, French)
