Namelix is a “memorable name generator” that uses AI to come up with creative names for businesses, .com names, and other business-related material. Namelix really makes the process easy to come up with a playful and unique name, especially when considering it for your business. It’s a great bonus that once it comes up with a name that it suggests the “.com” to go along with it.
Pro’s:
Here’s what we like about Namelix:
- Good name generation: With other tools, the names that come out of these generators don’t really have that “magic” or “creative” feel that comes from when you produce a business name yourself. Namelix is actually pretty good at creating some of those same results.
- Nice that it includes the “.com”: Especially for business use cases, nice to know that the “.com” is available.
- Love that you can choose name length: Short names, medium names, and long names can certainly help to get more accurate results.
Con’s:
Here’s what we don’t like about Namelix:
- Names away from your core idea: If you put in a name, sometimes the distance between your base idea and the output can be a bit too “far” from one another.
- Clunky UI: It’s pretty! But a little bit of a clunky UI, still. Not terrible, though.
- Logos cost money: If you want to use the logos it generates, that’s going to cost extra.
Pricing:
- No free tier, just a preview of results.
- Basic plan: $25 one-time fee.
- Enterprise plan: $175 one time fee.
Questions and answers:
Here is a breakdown of common questions about Namelix and answers from our review team.
| Common question | Answer |
| Does Namlix generate nam in es in Spanish? | If you want Namelix to give you “Espanol” options, it struggles with this a bit. It’s definitely more geared toward English words and business names. |
| Is it a good business name generator? | Yes, this is really the primary use case for Namelix. So if you’re trying to generate a band name or something else like that, you might want to skip using Namelix. |
| Can I get multiple domain name ideas? | Useful tip: Open them all up one-by-one in the same window. Opening a new tab will kick you back to the generation screen (clunky UI we were referring to). |
| Is the $65 logo worth it? | Getting the source files for your business logo can really be worth it. From the $25 it usually charges, that’s not a huge difference to get everything you’ll need to modify the logo. Alternatively, you can use Bing image generator to create a free logo. |
