UK Company Namecheck

Company names in the UK must be approved for availability and acceptability and the UK Companies Registry has an advanced electronic name reservation system.

The UK Companies Registry will only refuse a name if it is identical, almost identical or phonetically the same as a name already registered or implies state sponsorship. Use of certain words such as Bank, Insurance and Group will require special permission.
