The idea comes from the complex task of naming a new business, product, or website. It's not easy. With all of the good company, product, and domain names already taken, it can be quite challenging to come up with a creative name for your new venture. We, at Naming Force's parent company 32nd Degree, have had success at naming our products, but it's definitely the toughest part of completing a great idea. We thought a website designed to help people create names would be very useful. We have partnered with the public to create a large resource for entrepreneurs who need to put a name to an idea. Naming Force is a crowdsourcing naming website.

Click the "Get a Name" button, or tab, and register with us. You will then be able to create a "naming assignment." Once the assignment is created, the public can start creating names for you! The process of utilizing the public for a task is known as crowdsourcing.

Naming Assignments appear on Naming Force for 30 days. We do not force clients to choose a name in this time period, but the naming assignment is taken off the list after 30 days. If a client does not find an adequate name they should simply delete the naming assignment.

If you do not find a suitable name you can request a refund of your award amount. To request a refund, sign in, select your naming assignment, click the Edit button, then Delete the assignment (not your account). The refund process will then begin. You can only get a refund within 50 days of your original transaction. After your assignment runs for the period of 30 days you have 20 days to delete your name to receive your refund. After the 20 days you will not receive a refund. Only the award amount is refundable, not any additional fees.

The voting is simply to allow the client to get votes from friends, family, co-workers, and employees on their naming options. It plays no part in the award payout.

Yes. We do require a W9 before any payments can be made. This is the best way for us to stay straight with Uncle Sam. A link to the W9 will be sent when your name is chosen. W9's can be sent to us through fax or email. All this information is sent to the user when their name is chosen.

We collect the award money from the client up front. Clients can only get this money back (refunded) if they delete their naming assignment, saying that they did not find a suitable name. We trust our clients, but collecting the award up front helps to ensure that a client doesn't just use a name without awarding the winning user.

Unfortunately, no. It's a tax issue. Collecting tax for international parties is just too complex.
