Generate names
Write a good description, browse and select candidates, and run them against the TLDs you care about.
Start a generation
New Generation
DomainRadar → Name Generator → New Generation — "Describe your project and preferences to generate domain name suggestions."
Describe the project
The Description field is the quality lever. The placeholder sets the bar: "a cloud-based coffee subscription service for remote workers" — product, audience, vibe. Up to 1,000 characters; a sentence or two of specifics beats a paragraph of generalities.
Optionally add:
- Category — e.g. Tech / SaaS, E-commerce, Finance / Fintech, Health / Wellness… (twenty options).
- Style — e.g. Short & punchy, Abstract / Invented, Nature-inspired, Technical / Dev-friendly.
- Max Length — 3–30 characters, default 12.
- Amount — Small / Medium / Large; the buttons show the estimated name count for your current max length.
Generate
Click Generate Names. The job appears in the list as generating
and usually completes in well under a minute; the job page fills in
with the results.
Browse and select
The job page shows the generated names as a grid you can work through:
- Search or regex — the placeholder shows the idea:
^go.*hub$. - Length filter — a min–max range.
- Sort — Name A–Z / Z–A, Shortest first (default), Longest first.
- Click names to select them — selected names highlight, and the header tracks the selected count with a Deselect reset.
The left side of the page keeps the generation form pre-filled with this job's settings — tweak the description and generate again; it starts a new job, so the old results stay.
Check availability
The Check Availability menu offers Check all (the whole job) or Check selected. Either way you choose the TLDs to try and a check mode — every name × TLD combination then runs as a normal bulk check, with the usual cost estimate before it starts and the live results page after (filter to Available, star the winners).
Bulk-check creation limits apply (60/hour per organization, 20 per user) — checking all of a Large job across many TLDs is a big job by design; prefer selecting a shortlist first.
Iterating on the description
Generate Small, scan, refine, repeat:
- Too generic? Add brand voice — "playful but technical", "British understatement".
- Too literal? Set Style to Abstract / Invented.
- Too long? Lower Max Length — 6–9 characters forces punchier names.
- Wrong register? The Category and Style fields steer harder than restating the industry in prose.
When a batch looks right, re-run the same settings at Medium or Large for volume.
