- Google it with your city name.
- Check the Instagram and Facebook handle.
- Check the .com or .in domain.
- Say it aloud to 5 friends – if they remember it next day, it works.

Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a good cafe name?
Keep it short, easy to say and spell, linked to what you sell, and available as a domain and Instagram handle. Check that nobody else has already registered it as a trademark.
What are some good bubble tea shop names?
Fun, short names that hint at pearls, bubbles or tea work well – for example Pearl Pop, Bubble Bay, Sip & Chew or Boba Bloom. Always check availability before you use one.
Can I use a Tamil word in my cafe name?

How do I check if a cafe name is already taken?
Search the name on the IP India trademark search, Google, Instagram and domain sites. If someone already uses it for food or drinks, pick another name.
Should I register my cafe name as a trademark?
It is a good idea once you are sure about the name. A trademark attorney can file it for you. Until it is registered, you can use ™ – not ®.
