Global Linguistic Analysis
In-country analysis
Through linguistic analysis, we will assess the language and cultural strengths of the names you select across the languages that are most important to you. We have a panel of native speakers around the globe that help us assess the acceptability of your name candidates.
The analysis will help clarify if:
- The name is pronounceable in key languages/countries most important to your business
- The name has derogatory meanings or associations
- Their local products, companies, brands that have similar names.
