Podcast Name Generator
Get 20 podcast name ideas across 7 naming styles (descriptive, The X Show, personal, metaphor, playful, expert, alliterative). Free, instant.
Type a keyword and pick a genre. We'll generate 20 podcast names ready to test against Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Picking the right podcast name
Short, easy to say, and easy to spell beats clever. If you can't pronounce it on a podcast app review, listeners can't recommend it. Two-to-four words is the sweet spot.
Check availability in three places: (1) Apple Podcasts (click the button on any result above), (2) Spotify search, and (3) the .com domain for your show site. Podcast names aren't trademarked unless registered, but you want the brand to be findable when listeners search for you.

Podcast Name Generator FAQs

What makes a good podcast name?
Short, easy to say, easy to spell, and easy to search. Two-to-four words is the sweet spot. Avoid puns that don't read well in writing, numbers (people mishear them), and names that sound similar to existing shows in your genre. Test by reading it aloud to a friend who doesn't know the topic.
How do I check if a podcast name is taken?
Three places to check: (1) Apple Podcasts search (every name in our generator has a one-click deep link), (2) Spotify search, and (3) the .com domain at namechk.com or instantdomainsearch.com. If all three are clear, the name is yours to claim.
Are podcast names trademarked?
Not automatically. A podcast name is a brand and you can register it as a trademark in your jurisdiction (US: USPTO; UK: IPO; AU: IP Australia) for around $250-$700. Most podcasters don't bother until the show has commercial value. Common-law trademark (built through use) protects you from blatant copycats in most cases.
Should my podcast name include the topic?
It depends on your discoverability strategy. Descriptive names ('The Marketing Podcast') help with search. Brand names ('Pivot', 'Smartless') rely on word-of-mouth and host recognition. For first-time podcasters with no existing audience, descriptive names usually win the early discovery battle.
Can I rename my podcast later?
Technically yes, but it costs you the brand equity, RSS-feed continuity (existing listeners may not see updates), and search rankings on Apple Podcasts and Spotify. Pick a name you can live with for at least 3-5 years. If you do rename, do it BEFORE you have a meaningful audience.
What's the next step after picking a name?
Claim the matching .com domain, set up consistent handles on X / Instagram / TikTok, design a simple cover art (3000×3000px), record episode 1 (use our free script generator for the script), and submit to Apple Podcasts + Spotify + Google Podcasts via your hosting provider (Buzzsprout, Transistor, Captivate).
