In episode 2 of our 5-episode series, “Extraordinary Brands and How to Build Them,” we dig into the importance of finding the right name for your brand. With apologies to Shakespeare, a rose by any other name wouldn’t smell as sweet.

Plus: an NFL franchise with a bad name, a podcast with a great name, and the single naming rule that trumps them all.
