Intranet Project Names

October 13th, 2010 by Nigel Davies

We have posted previously about the importance of choosing an intranet name, and provided example intranet names. Two posts are here and here.

To continue this theme a new intranet client has got the list down to the last 5. I was reminded of this during a meeting today and so thought it would be good to add them to the list, as they also provided the reasons for suggesting these names :

Name        Meaning

Prime — Beginning, prepare, advise, inform, notify, stimulate, provide, best

Core — Backbone, root, origin, essential, support, and framework

Hatch — Devise, brainstorm, create, breed (as in ideas!), develop, discover, prepare, and cooperate

Vault — Storage, depository, safe, treasure,

Nexus — Comes from the Latin “nectere” meaning “to bind.” The Intranet is a collaboration hub.

Our team preferred Nexus. We should have the final decision from the client soon – and of course we will be designing a logo to match which is always fun!
