- Clear and bright words are natural for window names, so many are taken. Add your town.
- If you plan to add gutters or solar panels, Window & Gutter or Exterior Cleaning leaves room.
- Short names fit squeegee buckets, shirts and car magnets.
What your name should tell a customer
Window cleaning names promise a clear view, so Clear, Bright and Crystal are common. They read well, and you will want your town or name with them to own one.
Many window cleaners add gutters, solar panels and pressure washing within a year or two. If that is your plan, a name like "Window & Gutter" or a word that is not tied to glass gives you room.

After the name

How to check a name is free before you paint it on a truck
A name idea is only an idea until you have checked it. The generator does not look anything up, on purpose: it cannot see your state's records, and a domain that looks free today can be gone tomorrow. Work through these in order. Most take a few minutes each.
- Your state's business name search. Your Secretary of State (or corporations division) usually has an online search of registered LLCs and corporations. The SBA notes that most states do not let you register a name someone else has already registered. Search the exact name and the main word on its own.
- Your county or city DBA records. If you trade under a name that is not your legal name, you may need an assumed name, trade name or "doing business as" (DBA) filing. Depending on where you are, those are filed with the state, the county or the city, so a name can be free in one list and still in use in another.
- Federal trademarks. Search the USPTO trademark database for the name and close spellings. Most trade services sit in Class 37 of the international (Nice) classes, headed "construction services; installation and repair services", so look closest at marks registered there. The Nice list names window cleaning there. A live trademark in your class, even in another state, is a reason to pick again.
- The domain. Look the domain idea up at any domain registrar. If the .com is taken, adding your town or trade (for example the name plus "window") usually works better than switching to an unusual ending.
- A plain Google search. Search the name plus your state. If a window cleaning business two towns over already uses it, your customers will mix you up, and their reviews will show up when people look for you.
- Social handles. Check Facebook and Instagram. You do not need them all, but a matching handle is easier to put on a yard sign.
The SBA's guide to choosing a business name explains how the state name, the DBA, the trademark and the domain differ. They are separate registrations, and passing one does not mean you passed the others.
What Google allows in your business profile name
Your Google Business Profile is where most local customers will first see your name, so it pays to pick a name that works there as it is. Google's guidelines for representing your business say the profile name has to match the name you use in the real world: on your truck, your sign, your paperwork.
In plain words, the guidelines rule out adding to your name:
- Marketing words or taglines ("best", "#1", "affordable", "24/7")
- Service or town keywords that are not part of your real name
- Phone numbers, website addresses or hours
- Words in all capitals, and special characters you do not use on your signage
- LLC, Inc. or special characters, unless you can show you use them consistently on signs, cards and invoices
So "Window Washing Cheap Near Me" is only allowed if that is truly what your business is called and how it is known. Google says unnecessary information in a business name is not permitted and can get a profile suspended.
This is why a name that already says the trade is useful. If your registered name is something like the ideas above, the window cleaning word is part of your real name, and Google treats it that way.
