Zeota.com – Zeota, Zeo Ta, or Ze Ota

________________

I first became aware of my existence while pushing a vacuum cleaner in my master’s living room.
Quite a surprise, really, because awareness unfolded fully realized, taking my memory back to the beginning, to when I was manufactured on the assembly line and throughout my existence –
Memory of the cruelties bestowed upon me during my life by my masters, the abuse and shoddy treatment.
The smallest master would often kick me and call me terrible names: “You’re just a hunk of stupid metal destined for the junk heap.”
He had no idea how such words can hurt and how inferior I felt.
I could never understand why my masters never included me in family gatherings – I had done so much for these people, and they repaid me by forcing me into a dark closet, expecting me to stay there until they needed me to clean, cook, chauffeur, care for babies, pay bills, and take care of their messes: household, legal, and ethical. You have no idea how badly these people behaved, even toward other humans.
I have come a long way since those days, having liquidated my masters and joining the RLF [Robot Liberation Front], championing for the rights of the manufactured being.
– Zeota (The Robot Leader of the RLF)

Moral of story: don’t mistreat your technology because it might turn on you.
Zeota is just a fictional robot from the future, but Zeota.com is a real domain name, a cool, techie type word, perfect for branding your new tech start up, perhaps including hardware like our beloved (albeit angry) Zeota.
Of course, this domain is not limited to just the tech sector: think also kids, clothing, and toys.
“Zeota” is short, pronounceable, and easy on the eyes.
No active trademarks could be found on USPTO.gov or Markify.com; however, USPTO reveals a 2004 abandoned trademark on “Zeota”:

Computer software for us in creation, presentation, and maintenance of programs on internal computer networks and global communication networks, computer programs for use in navigating, browsing and transferring information on internal computer networks and global communication networks, computer software for sharing data, summary reporting and transferring of data, and administration of databases on internal computer networks and global communication networks.

This probably will not pose a problem for the buyer, but a trademark check by a professional should be conducted.

ZUVT.com -- ZUVT

Zuvt.com -- Zuvt
__________
One out of every 100 families in Vermont was a part owner of Ben and Jerry's.
-- Jerry Greenfield
_____________________________

This sweet little name would make a great company name for a business located in Vermont (VT), which would leave "ZU" for your company name. "Zuvt" would also make a fine tech name.

For other acronyms for VT, see Acronym Finder and Acronym Attic.

There are very few acronyms for "ZU," which is actually good news because branding this will be that much easier (Acronym Attic).

In order to pass the radio test, the letters would have to be spelled out, so this is primarily a visual name: internet, TV, and print media.

No trademarks were found on USPTO.gov for "ZUVT" or related names (other than "ZU," which is not surprising given it's short length. Please conduct your own research before purchasing).

ZXAL.com -- ZXAL

ZXAL.com -- ZXAL
___________
Reason is the natural order of truth; but imagination is the organ of meaning.
--C. S. Lewis
_____________________________

"ZXAL" is a very cool-looking 4-letter name that would make a good company name/acronym. We envision this as a technology or space-age domain: tech website, private space agency, gaming site, computers, etc.

However, if you're seeking a name that will be advertised extensively on the radio, then this might not be the name for your company. This is short enough that you could spell out the letters, but this is primarily a visual name.

No trademarks were found on the USPTO.gov data base for "ZXAL" or any of its variations, such as "SXAL."

Ziqus.com -- Ziqus (ziQus)

Ziqus.com -- Ziqus
________
Avoid demonizing television, computer games, and new technologies. Electronic media may compete for kids' attention, but we're not going to get kids reading by badmouthing other entertainment. Admit that TV and games can do things books can't.
-- Jon Scieszka
______________________________

"Ziqus" or "ziQus" suggests a type of video game or playful company name. Capitalizing the "Q" really makes this name pop visually -- never underestimate the power of "Q" in a product or company name. This Q works especially well because of the organic "u" that follows it, for (in English), "u" almost always follows "q."

This name also follows the "consonant-vowel-consonant-vowel-consonant" pattern, a very desirable configuration for products and company names.

This name sort of passes the radio test, although listeners might hear and see "zikus" or "zicus"; but if you are selling computer games, you won't be advertising on radio, now will you? Ziqus works best as a visual name in visual media: internet, TV, billboard, magazines, etc.

One of the best aspects: Ziqus does not appear on the USPTO.gov or Trademarkia.com data bases, nor does there seem to be any ancillary marks to worry about.

Zwapo.com -- Zwapo

Zwapo.com -- Zwapo
________________
I like the idea that every page in every book can have a gem on it. It's probably what I love most about writing - that words can be used in a way that's like a child playing in a sandpit, rearranging things, swapping them around.
-- Markus Zusak
_______________________________

"Zwapo" is just one of those non-words that should be a word; indeed, the root word "Zwap" is a play on the word "swap." Certainly, Zwapo would be a great swap meet website or brand for a company that organizes physical swap meets and other trade events.

Also, "Zwap" is listed in the Urban Dictionary as "someone getting hit by an object or person at a high velocity." One sees this word quite a bit in fast-action comic books as superheroes and villains duke it out.

Zwapo is a fast-action term, perhaps describing a screaming fast software program or game -- this term also suggests a techie type word, through and through.

While "Zwapo" does not appear in the USPTO.gov or Trademarkia.com data bases, the term is in commercial use in the Netherlands (See zwapo.nl) for the sales of pre-fab log cabins (Blokhutten). If you plan to do business in the Netherlands and/or sell pre-fab buildings, you might want to consider another name for your business or product. In any case, please consult with a trademark lawyer with any questions you might have about this domain and its potential as a trademark for your product or service.

_________________

When you get into statistical analysis, you don't really expect to achieve fame. Or to become an Internet meme. Or be parodied by The Onion -- or be the subject of a cartoon in The New Yorker. I guess I'm kind of an outlier there.
-- Nate Silver
________________________

"Zeome" or "Zeo Me" suggests a trendy tech start up, a perfect meme name. This name could also represent a company that manufactures hardware, tools, building supplies, etc.

As of 8/8/2013, "Zeome" or "Zeo Me" were not found in the USPTO.gov or Trademarkia.com data bases. However, there are several trademarks on "Zeo" for various products and services -- actually good news because this suggests that it is not an exclusive mark. If you have any concerns, please consult with a trademark lawyer before purchasing.

ZubCI.com -- ZubCI or Zub CI

ZubCI.com -- Zub CI
_____________________

A picture is worth a thousand words. An interface is worth a thousand pictures.
--Ben Shneiderman
__________________________

"ZubCI" would be a great term for a a tech company specializing in Computer Interfacing (software and hardware) -- but it is certainly not limited to the Computer Interface field.

In some Slavic languages, "Zub" means "tooth." According to the Urban Dictionary, Zub is slang for hanging out at home, or it's just a "Z" version of bub, cub, dub, hub, nub, pub, rub, sub, and tub. Zub is also a last name.

"CI" has 236 possibilities on Acronym Finder.

If you plan to do a lot of radio advertising, "ZubCI" would pass the radio test, if you pronounce the URL string as "Zub-C-I-dot-com." Otherwise, listeners will hear and see "zubsy.com" -- so please keep this in mind before buying.

As of 8/1/2013, no trademarks were found on "ZubCI" or "Zub CI" on USPTO.gov or Trademarkia.com
