Inspired by comments on the topic.
How to find a suitable name for a startup. At first I wanted to write a detailed comment, then an angry topic that stigmatized anyone who tries to “generate” ideas by brute force, at a time when
TRIZ exists from the last century.
Then he cooled down and decided just to show by example that there are simple methods of generating ideas available to all, regardless of the presence of beer, coffee, showers, freelancers, etc.
So, we need to come up with a name for a startup. It should be easy to remember, preferably with the right meaning, preferably short and not necessarily busy in terms of the domain.

Moreover, for most topics (especially competitive ones), all possible options were long overdue and busy.
Common situation? And here is the solution:
1. Write out the perfect name for a startup. Well, if the zone .ru only opened and we were given a blank check to choose any domain in it.
2. Find a dictionary-translator from Russian to one of the other languages of the Slavic group, for example, Polish, Slovak, Bulgarian, etc.
3. We are looking for the translation of the written words into the brotherly language and we write down sonorous variants.
That's all. At the exit, interesting and pleasant ear words are obtained, with guessed associations and free domains in the .ru zone
Simply?
Available?
Yes, I think so.
PS As an online translator, I used the Slovennik found within 3 minutes. Its advantages are that you can find the translation of the desired word into several Slavic languages at once and select the most interesting variants. But perhaps there are the best translators - not looking.
PPS The method of searching for names can be applied not only for start-ups, but also for companies, product brands, etc.
PPPS If the method turned out to be useful, I don’t need to thank me, but
