"Companies are increasingly recognising the critical role of naming in building a corporate reputation, whilst creating a powerful, relevant and original name is one of the great challenges of branding," said Philip Davies, President EMEA, Siegel+Gale. "Our clients in EMEA are constantly looking to engage with dedicated, on-the-ground naming specialists with regional expertise, and we are excited by the ability to provide this service from our London office. It is an essential asset for us and a natural step as we continue to expand our brand development practice."
Christian Turner, previously Group Director of Naming in Siegel+Gale's New York office, will lead the London practice. Turner has in the past overseen standing engagements with large, global clients such as American Express, P&G and HP while also naming many companies and products as standalone assignments.
"Your brand name is everywhere and exists as easily in conversation as it does on a building or package. While we often find brands with terrible names useful, we tend to love and remain loyal to brands that express who they are in elegant, interesting and witty ways. I look forward to cracking the naming conundrums that clients in the region are facing whilst also developing the EMEA naming practice by further instilling what we believe to be naming's clear mandate: to express a simple idea in surprising language that explains the present and doesn't break easily in the future," said Turner, Group Director, Naming EMEA.
Siegel+Gale's global naming group consists of 9 experienced professionals with specific expertise in the art and science of naming across a wide range of categories and industries. Combined, the Siegel+Gale naming team has over 100 years of experience in creating brand names and nomenclature systems.
