Hi,

I'm interested in a travel domain name, with preference to the Arab
world as the scope of the site and as such it may benefit from the
lack of demand on regional names with lingual, historic and cultural
references perhaps.

Any ideas? :-)

www.HamitoSemitic.com
(Arabic language is a member of the Semitic group of the
Hamito-Semitic family of languages.)

www.bikamhatha.com
(Translated from Arabic “bikam hatha?”: “How much is this?”, ie. cost)

www.kamilkhasem.com
(Translated from Arabic “kam il khasem?”: “How much is the discount?”)

www.balliballiballi.com
(Translated from Arabic “balli balli balli”: “Whatever you say!”)

www.kufiyah.com
(The Arab headdress. Implying that your site has an interest in
wherever these are worn. It would make for a very interesting and
readily recognizable logo too, I might add) The domain
www.Bedouins.com might also be an interesting choice for the same
reasons.

Let me know if any of these interest you.

Thank you everyone for the suggesions.

What I'm looking for should avoid steriotyping customers.  I'm
interested in someone who can comeup with a positive history and
culturally originating phrase or term that I can trademark.

I would also be interested in something that doesn't have anything to
do with the region of you can come up with a good brand/domain for the
web site.

Thank you. :-)

Hi Denco,

Those also fall under steriotyping.  Or haven't you noticed?

Nope, I wouldn't consider it stereotyping, anymore than
"Travel King" would be a stereotype for Europeans, etc.

From: http://www.onelook.com/?w=sheik

"It has come to be used to mean a leader or noble,
especially in the Arabian Peninsula ..."

Perhaps it is not as "serious" of name for a company one
could come up with, but I thought it fit the initial
parameters.

How about www.SaharaFun.com or

www.DuneTravel.com

www.HolidayCaravan.com

www.OASys.com

www.ArabianVoyager.com

www.PangeaTraveler.com or www.PangeaVacations.com or
www.PangeaVoyages.com or www.PangeaVoyager.com

Am I on the right track now?
