Naming a Business

I'm starting a multi-media company and have been getting hung up trying to think of a name.
I keep getting stuck on the same few and want to break out of the cycle.
Any techniques/suggestions?

Strangely, coming up with a company name is the hardest fricking thing to do - especially if there's more than one of you starting it up.
I've got a similar problem, as we're closing down our old partnership to start anew - trouble is, I don't want to change the name (and all the fucking branding, but thankfully we never got as far as trademarking our logo, so that can stay)
All I can suggest is: avoid using 'Whacky' animal names, especially in conjunction with significant/irrelevant numbers and colours.
Best off choose something not-too specific, so should you change your strategy at a later date (say, to a sausage merchants) you won't be stuck with 'Joe's bespoke website co.' or whatever.

I'm involved with two companies. One is 'hutchhouse' which is half my surname, and the other 'naldertown' is the name of a street.
Was pretty easy to sort really.
