Code names

Good code names are both memorable and inspiring.

Code names are used because a code name is easier to remember, than a number or a long describing project name.

How to create code names

Good code names can be generated in many ways. I use colors, animals, adjectives, and nouns to make the code names. All the words are combined in random patterns and combinations to make inspiring and catchy code names. Code names that are easy to use and remember.

When you make random code names not all names are good codenames. But just press the code name generator button once again, and you got a new and better codename.

Other methods are using anagrams, letter combinations, number combinations, and combinations of all the above.

The final goal is to create a describing, memorable and easy-to-remember codename.
