How did you choose the name of your app?

by•
Most of people takes way too long to define their project's name even before having starting it... For us, we were already shaping the outline of our platform since 2-3 months when MIDSTAY came up. I had a call with my father, and I was explaining to him that I met a super interesting guy in Bali, called Magnus. He is software engineer and myself as a Product guy we wanted to join force and help remote workers work and travel. This wouldn't be a short-term stay like Tourists, neither a long-term stay like Expats... I mentioned to him by call, this is more in between... He said mid-term stays? Midstay? That sounded right directly. I said YES dad! This is our new project's name. We'll be launching it to the amazing PH community at the end of the month, don't hesitate to have a look at it:

Oooh I love this story! 🫶 This name resonates and is a perfect fit.
Our product, FeedLens (), acts as a virtual lens into your app's feedback universe. It monitors mobile app reviews, automatically extracts insights, and facilitates seamless responses – providing you with a comprehensive view of your user feedback. Hence the name FeedLens :D
Nice one!
i choose the name from chatgpt
At least it's straight and honest! I like that :)
ooh thats a great story
Thanks Arlie !! Don't hesitate to follow our launch, it's happening in 4 days :)
with the help of AI
Interesting story, thanks for sharing! I have chosen "Viralify" name by playing around the word "viral". Then I found that the Viralify domain is also available and we locked it.
That's a great approach! I'm always checking domain availability as well when starting a new project
Best practice.
Don't stress about that.. just contract me😅 I will deliver above your expectation 👌
This sounds like an awesome chat with your father!
Oh it was!! And he remembers it well too
memes free people so it is okay to be dumb = Dumbbe :)
Ahahah nice one!
Nice story and nice name indeed! I think choosing the name of the product is actually very important. For instance, it took us months to stick with "EraseID", and we went through lots of back and forth. We choose it because it should immediately explain the user what the product does. Best of luck with your launch!
Thanks for sharing! I guess one of the trap to choose a name where it describes too precisely, is the danger of feeling stuck when you need to pivot because you don't find product market fit... How do you do if it happens? do you change the name?
