    take the first three letters of the business owners' names and line them up in order:
    if it sounds like a word, great!
    if it's not even pronounceable, even better -- now you have a hook to keep people talking about your company
    and the URL.com is probably available for a website

    think of the great company you'll be in with unpronounceable names:

    Damn, I have the absolute best idea. It seriously makes me giddy thinking about it. This name is the best. How about, instead of $25, we call it $2,500 up front and 25% of gross revenue. Cool, make the check out to Greatest Name Evar LLC.

    This shit again?
    How did you get BC.com to even pick you up with your free subdomain?
    Buy a fucking web address. Borrow the $12 from a friend if you have to.

If someone could make a jacket of those three things it would no doubt be the most popular and prized item in all of your closets.

    I feel like just making hats is an awfully specific niche. Maybe too specific to really make any money. You haven't even bought a domain yet. Consider branching out into cod pieces or yarmulkes.
