The naming of a product can be challenging, with branding expert Marty Neumeier identifying seven key characteristics for effective product names: distinctive, short, appropriate, easy to spell and pronounce, likable, extendable, and protectable.

The author suggests that some of these names may be misleading or even confusing, particularly when compared to more meaningful ways of differentiating products. Ultimately, the goal should be to create a name that effectively communicates the product's value and resonates with its target audience.
