    In short, we would love feedback from the community on which of the following company names is the best to choose for our Start Up Company?

    (As background, we have run a naming contest on both squadhelp.com and namingforce.com. We have gone through the list of names generated from both contests to create the following shortlist of - what we think are - the best names. We are looking for feedback from other people to help us make a decision on which name to choose).

    Feel free to pick your favourite, your top 3 favourites, your worst 3 favourites, or whichever feedback format you prefer. We will be incorporating the company in Australia on July 1st, 2014 so fast feedback is sought, if possible.

    Thanks in advance for those offering their opinions. Your feedback will be very much appreciated and well received.

    This is a bit funny because there are thousands of people on this forum and each one of them will offer a very subjective, personal opinion. How it's going to make selecting a name easier is beyond me.


    How about you picking 3 names that you personally favor and then letting us choose from those 3?

    Previous poster hit the nail on the head.

    Just as a personal opinion, I'd drop any of the names ending in 'o', 'a'... they just rub me wrong I suppose...

    Ledgerforce is okay, because it combines ledger and workforce. Accountiva is okay, but maybe...what about Account Diva? or Bookkeeping Diva? 'Cours it might depend on whether or not you want to appeal to others as a female or not.

    Except than in Aussie nicknames typically just take your normal name and do exactly that - so culturally it's appropriate.

    Personally, as someone from your "eastern state", I'd go for Perfecto, trustica or countify

    You see! I knew there was something wrong with my opinion!

    I agree that cultural norms would be preferable here...

    Ledgerforce or LedgerMate are my tops for name. Combines accounting, power, and teamwork. I like the word Sumtastic, but not as a company name. I have heard it before, but could not find a company using it as a name in my quick search. Good luck to you.
