Marketplace domain name ideas
Marketplace names need to work for both sides of the network. Lobby explores domains that communicate exchange, discovery, trust, supply, demand, and the category being matched.
Balance trust and energy
The name should feel active enough to attract supply while still feeling safe enough for buyers to transact.
Leave room for network expansion
Avoid naming only one side of the market if the long-term platform depends on both buyers and sellers.
