You can use steps 1 and 2
Then make a list and start asking people what names grab
attention.
(At least be somewhat rational about this!)

I prefer taking a dictionary and just flip though it for random "cool looking" words. =)

1) Keep it short. 1 word is better than 2
2) try and describe your products with that word (note: dont use "poor" :))
3) Dont be too pompous
4) Make sure it doesnt sound too small or too big
Or ignore all these and use a random name generator coupled with an anagram generator.

Formula 1) Take a science word, and replace the c or k with an x.
Formula 2) Take two science words and stick them together.
There, pretty much every gaming/software company ever is named using these formulae.
