How to Avoid “Name Slop”: Why AI-Generated Names Fail & What to Do About It

Saison 4 · Épisode 1

jeudi 8 janvier 2026 • Durée 04:22

"Name slop" warns that AI spits out polished but interchangeable names—repeating familiar patterns and suffixes—which hurts memorability, trust, and raises legal/rebrand risk. People buy meaning, not words; great names must be defensible, pronounceable, discoverable, and able to carry a story. Use AI for ideas and speed, but let humans apply trademark checks, phonetic tests, category clarity, and narrative judgment before choosing.

Why Getting a Trademark Registration Is So Much Harder

Saison 3 · Épisode 27

jeudi 4 décembre 2025 • Durée 03:12

In this episode of Naming in the AI Age, Ashley Elliott explains why trademarking a name has become increasingly challenging. Global trademark filings have nearly doubled over the past decade, from 6 million in 2015 to 11.7 million in 2024, with significant concentrations in countries like China and growing activity in emerging markets such as India, which filed roughly 540,000 trademarks in 2024. The rise of e-commerce, especially during COVID, fueled spikes in filings as online-first sellers raced to protect new product lines. This growth in filings has led to more oppositions, monitoring, and marketplace enforcement, making it harder to secure a name. To navigate this complex landscape, Ashley advises focusing on priority markets, selecting distinctive names, filing early, and working with professional or local IP counsel to streamline filings and avoid conflicts. The key takeaway: Name smart and protect early.

Is a USPTO Search Good Enough?

Saison 3 · Épisode 18

jeudi 21 août 2025 • Durée 02:43

A USPTO search is a good first step, but it doesn’t guarantee brand protection. The federal database only covers federally filed trademarks, leaving out state registers, the Trademark Official Gazette (with recently approved marks), and common law rights from simply using a name in commerce. That means small businesses, Etsy shops, YouTube channels, or local restaurants may have enforceable rights even if they don’t appear in the USPTO system. To avoid conflicts and build a strong brand, a clearance search should cover federal, state, and online sources—like Google, domains, and social media—and be followed by an IP attorney’s review.

Just a heads-up: We are not attorneys and this isn't legal advice - just helpful info. For specific trademark questions, always consult with a qualified IP attorney.

USPTO Trademark Search Pros, Cons, and Watch-outs

Saison 3 · Épisode 17

jeudi 7 août 2025 • Durée 02:45

Before picking a business or brand name, check the USPTO’s TESS database to see if it's already federally trademarked. The basic search finds exact matches, while the expert search digs deeper for phonetic or visual similarities and class-specific conflicts. Still, TESS doesn't show common law trademarks, state registrations, or domain/social media use. Since trademark law hinges on potential confusion, missing a similar name could jeopardize your brand. In today’s fast-paced world, consulting an IP attorney is the best way to ensure your name is clear and protected.

Non-Alcoholic Beverage Names That Actually Work!

Saison 3 · Épisode 16

jeudi 31 juillet 2025 • Durée 05:56

In this episode of Naming in the AI Age, Ashley Elliott unpacks how non-alcoholic beverage brands use naming to stand out in a vibe-driven market. She outlines four naming strategies: descriptive (e.g., Hop Water), suggestive (e.g., Recess, Trip), abstract (e.g., Hiyo, De Soi), and unconventional (e.g., Cornbread). While descriptive names offer clarity, Ashley argues that suggestive and abstract names better capture emotion and brand potential in a space where mood often outweighs function.

Naming: When You Need a Detailed Creative Brief

Saison 3 · Épisode 15

jeudi 24 juillet 2025 • Durée 05:59

In this episode, Mike Carr highlights the importance of a detailed creative brief for high-stakes naming projects, especially for global or brand-focused clients. Unlike simpler briefs, a comprehensive one defines naming architecture, brand strategy, and long-term goals. Carr stresses clarifying the name’s purpose, desired tone, and brand archetype, while also choosing the right semantic and tonal style. Even if clients don’t see the full brief, it leads to stronger, more strategic names—whether created by people or AI.

jeudi 10 juillet 2025 • Durée 13:51

In this episode of Naming in the AI Age, Mike Carr explains how AI can enhance naming when used strategically.

Carr introduces "context engineering"—feeding AI detailed inputs like brand strategy and audience insights—to generate better names. He covers prompt structuring, using advanced models like GPT-4o, and the continued importance of human intuition and critical thinking. While AI accelerates idea generation, naming experts remain key for legal checks, real-world testing, and team alignment.
