Company names in Ireland must be pre-approved for availability and acceptability. The Ireland Companies Registry (CRO) has an advanced electronic name reservation system.
The CRO will refuse a name if it is identical, almost identical or phonetically identical to an existing registered Company, equally one that implies state sponsorship.
Use of certain words such as Bank, Insurance and Group will require CRO special permission.
