    Hi all, I'm thinking of starting a software solutions company, but I'm having a hard time coming up with a 'good' name. Any suggestions?

      Macrohard Orrible Boogle Rainforest The Software Solutions Company Seriously, try to come up with a name yourself. It's going to be your company so you need to be happy and comfortable with the name.

                        I remember there was one website called Nameboy which used to suggest names for the domain names. You can try to get some ideas from that engine also.

Anything with Logic, soft, hard, info etc would have already been taken ten times over and it'll do nothing to impress potential customers. Choose something that's either savvy, or atleast conveys what your company is doing. Good Luck.

                                Sounds like "Alan Partridge" on "The Day Today". Alan. "Todays race was sponsored by Global Hyper Mega Soft. And I can literally see thousands of people" Studio. "Now hold on Alan. Can you really see thousands of people?" Alan. "Well. Ok then. I can literally see three people." Studio. "Hold on Alan. Does this include the cameraman?" Alan. "Errr Yes." Studio. "So basically it's you, the cameraman and the jockey." Alan. "Yes."
