Hello Twinnie,

I'm just going to list some ideas.  If you choose one of them, I'll
post it as the answer.  And, in my opinion, your current
"TouchIreland" isn't half bad.

Pot of Gold Interactive
InfoIreland
Shamrock Interactive
i-reland (the "I" being like the "I" in iWon.com, iVillage.com, etc.)
Emerald Isle Interactive
The Irish Touch

Good luck.

Hello again, Twinnie,

I re-read your question and realized that you are going for something
more, as you say, "catchy."  File my above suggestions into the
utilitarian brand name section.

Here are some more suggestions:

ANU - (Irish goddess of fertility...Mother Earth)
Epona - (Goddess of horses...reference to an ancient information
exchange)
Agora - (Roman Market...gathering place...a place to exchange info)
An Gaelin - (Celtic name for the North Star...the beam that lights the
way home)
Oirion - (Celtic name for Orion...I've just always liked that
constellation)

Hi,
Being Irish, having performed successful marketing myself, I believe I
can help.

I suggest that you need a memorable name rather than some weak
pseudo-irish-celtic unpronouncable (for most people - and therefore
hard to remember) thing. You will be marketing to Non-irish, much much
more than to irish folk.

So I would go for something which calls on an existing very strong and
enduring, but currently hidden memory.

Diego Maradonna is best remembered all around the world for the "hand"
or the touch, so I suggest either "Maradonna" or "Diego" if you are
happy to not
have a direct Irish sound to the name. If you can't brand (trademark)
that in the markets you're interested in, call it Diego Brosnan or
something else that taps the memories. "Diego Brosnan Information
Services" would do you just fine!

Anyway, if you don't like that, you still get the idea. Piggy-back the
existing memories rather than trying to create a new Coke or Gilette
brand.

Good luck with your service, I look forward to using it.
