FAQs

How do I come up with a radio station name?

Start with your genre, location or the feeling you want listeners to have, then keep it short and easy to remember. The generator above turns a quick description of your station into ten ready-to-use ideas.

Should my station name include my genre or location?

It can help listeners know what to expect, but it is not essential. Plenty of well-known stations use abstract or invented names. Pick something that still fits if your programming broadens later.

How do I check if a station name is already taken?

Search the name on Google, streaming directories and social platforms, and check whether a matching domain is available. If it is already widely used, tweak it or try another idea from the list.

Yes, it is completely free to use. When you are ready to broadcast, you can start a station on Radio Cult.
