## What it is and how it works

It includes exploring meaning, pronunciation and differentiation, alongside the relevant feasibility checks. It differs from [naming architecture](https://www.zorraquino.com/en/dictionary/branding/naming-architecture.html), which sets rules for relating the names of products, services or divisions. A corporate name does not need to explain every activity, but should allow for a comprehensible and sustainable identity.
