Honest limits — read before you pick a name
- These are brainstorming suggestions, not cleared brand names. Nothing here has been checked against trademarks or existing Web Store listings.
- Names containing "Chrome" need care. The Chrome Web Store has branding policies about using Google trademarks; a name that implies official status can be rejected. Check the current store policies before publishing.
- This site is not affiliated with Google. "Chrome" here refers to the browser users install extensions into, not to any endorsement.
- Safe uses: hackathon builds, internal tools, brainstorming sessions, naming workshops, placeholder names in mockups and docs.
Name patterns that work on the Web Store
The Chrome Web Store is a crowded shelf. Names that win are short enough for the toolbar, clear enough for search, and distinct enough to remember.
Brandable blends
One invented word — Tabcharm, Clipdock, Boostly. Distinctive and ownable, easy to turn into an icon. The tradeoff: the listing description has to explain what it does.
Descriptive clarity
Plain words that say the job — Swift Tab Manager, Cookie Cleaner. These match what users type into Web Store search, a genuine discoverability edge for new extensions.
Tone-matched adjectives
The adjective sets expectations: Swift and Prime promise competence; Zippy and Breezy promise friendliness. Match the tone to the audience — a password tool should not sound breezy.

Quick answers
Can I put "Chrome" in my extension's name? +
Carefully. The Chrome Web Store has branding policies covering Google trademarks, and names implying official status can be rejected. Descriptive phrases like "X for Chrome" are generally safer than names that read as Google-made, but check the current policies before publishing. Store naming tips.
What makes a good Chrome extension name? +
Short, pronounceable, clear about the job, distinctive in a crowded store, and free of trademark conflicts. Under about 20 characters so it survives toolbar tooltips. Full guide.
Are generated names safe to use? +
Not automatically. The tool does no trademark or store-listing checks. Search the Chrome Web Store for collisions and check your country's trademark database before committing.
Descriptive or brandable — which is better? +
Descriptive names match Web Store search queries and help new extensions get discovered; brandable blends are more memorable long-term. Many extensions launch descriptive and rebrand later.
Is the generator private? +
Yes. It runs entirely in your browser with crypto.getRandomValues(). Nothing you type or generate is sent anywhere — see the privacy page.
