The name of each company hides a particular story.
Jeff Bezzos, for example, had no plans
to call his now gigantic empire
Amazon .
At first, he called his online book-selling business
Cadabra
, until his lawyer got serious and told him that the name didn't work because almost no one caught the nod to the magic of
Abracadabra
and there were many who, however, they associated the term to the word
corpse
.
Bad business is the one who is born smelling like the dead.
So Bezos reluctantly embarked on the complicated task of coming up with the perfect name for a company with the potential to become something big, really big.
He came to register several:
Bookmall, Browse, Awake.
.. but he didn't like any of them.
And he reached for the dictionary.
He reviewed names with the letter A, since then Internet search engines were ordered alphabetically and he wanted his company to always appear among the first positions.
And so, sailing through the waters of the dictionary, he reached the largest river in the world: the Amazon.
The choice of the most suitable name for a business is, seen from what has been seen, quite subjective.
In many cases, creativity and a
sense of humor weigh more.
And of that, in our country, we have plenty.
In Spain, a total of
102,000 commercial companies
were incorporated in 2021. A complicated year for entrepreneurship, with the pandemic still permeating practically all economic activities and with a large turnover of closings and openings.
In this context, the Covid has opened a gap among the most curious names of the companies formed this year.
" After the
legal pandemic calms down
" (a restoration company, Álava);
"
The desire to dance will return
" (for another restoration and events in Pontevedra);
"We'll take you home with the bottle
" (a wholesale trade company for alcoholic beverages in Valencia) or
"Vivir para ver"
(an audiovisual production company in Barcelona), are some
pandemic
examples of the ranking of the most original names that Every year, Infoempresa.com is produced, the business information website.
But there is business life beyond the pandemic.

Tagus Tao Wok stands out
;
the one for administrative services in Madrid
Papeleo sin jaleo
, SL', the real estate company
Nidito de amor,
which shows you flats in Madrid;
or the consultancy

Patricia Peiró
