Nomen
Our naming story

In 1981, Marcel Botton founded Nomen.

And we started strong, with our first ever name being Renault's iconic Clio.

Since then, the agency has greatly expanded, having created more than 2800 brands and company names that have become part of our daily lives. We have crossed the Rhine and the Alps to establish offices in Duffeldorf and Milan in order to become the European leader in naming.

Over the years, we have developed a wealth of experience: our integrated legal firm, Legimark, a network of over 1000 linguists from all around the world as well as exclusive creation tools. We have everything you need to create a powerful and unified brand.

Our manifesto

Naming an idea or naming a project
You have to give it energy, to make it real
And maybe tomorrow
it will find its place in society.

The name is read, the name is said
It sets the tone, it distinguishes itself.

The name inspires, the name intrigues,
Be it joyful, pragmatic or audacious,
The name is created, is lived by and stimulates emotion.

At Nomen, we create names that bring people together,
That create emotions with a lasting impact
on our daily lives,
That help everyone to succeed.
