You need to use an Indiana Company Name which is not the same or too similar to the Business Name of any other
entity operating in the state of Indiana.
The Indiana Secretary of State will not approve an Indiana Company Name which is so similar to another Indiana Company Name
(Corporation or LLC) as to be likely to be mistaken for it.
Your Indiana Company Name can identify the type of products and/or services your Indiana Corporation or Indiana LLC will provide;
or it may be the name of the founder; or it can be a combination of the two or even something else.
In any case, the Indiana Company Name that you choose must be distinguishable from the name of any other registered Indiana
Business entity and the name must also be different from any Reserved Company Names on record with the Indiana Secretary of State.
Your Indiana Company Name must not imply that it was formed for a purpose other than that stated in your
formation documents and your Indiana Company Name must not be a name that is likely to mislead the public.
If you are planning on starting an Indiana Corporation then your name must include the words
"Incorporated", "Corporation", "Inc." or "Corp.".
If you are planning on starting an Indiana LLC then your name must include the words "LLC" or "Limited Liability Company".
Here are some general guidelines to keep in mind when you come up with your Indiana Company Name:
- Your Indiana Company Name must include only English letters and numbers or Roman numerals.
- Punctuation DOES NOT make Indiana Company Names distinguishable from each other.
For example, "A.B.C., Inc." is not distinguishable from "ABC, Inc."
- Plural forms of the same word DO NOT make the Indiana Company Names distinguishable from each other.
- A suffix added to a word or any other deviation from or derivative of the same word DOES NOT make Indiana Company Names
distinguishable from each other.
- Indiana Company Names are NOT DISTINGUISHABLE if the only difference is the abbreviation of a word in the name.
For example, "IN Auto Store, Inc." is not distinguishable from "Indiana Auto Store, Inc."
- Indiana Company Names are NOT DISTINGUISHABLE if the only difference is a phonetic spelling of the same word.
For example, "Boyz, Inc." is not distinguishable from "Boys, Inc."
It's important to choose a good name for your Indiana Business because if you want to change it after you form your Indiana Company you
will have to file amended formation documents with the Indiana Secretary of State (and pay a fee).
