Manfred Gotta

Founder
GOTTA Brands

Manfred Gotta, known as the “king of names” in his home country Germany, is a leader worldwide in the art and science of naming new products and brands.

He founded his company GOTTA Brands in 1986 and from the beginning saw the importance, opportunity, and power of starting out with names that work both domestically and internationally. A thorough vetting to make sure that there are no negative linguistic associations in other languages is part of the naming process and essential for a name’s global success.

Working from an idyllic Black Forest valley, Manfred has created such well known names as:

  • Porsche Cayenne
  • Porsche Panamera
  • Renault Twingo
  • Renault Mégane
  • Renault Avantime
  • Mercedes Actros
  • Evonik
  • Targobank
  • Opel Vectra
  • smart, smart for two, smart for four
  • Persil megaperls
  • SAT1 Planetopia
  • Aldi AMAROY Coffee
  • Le Centorial ( largest office complex in the centre of Paris)

to mention just a few.

GOTTA Brands is described as the most creative company in the business of inventing names and is, of course, an international business.

As well as creating a host of names for different products and companies, Manfred Gotta has also created the most names in the world for cars.

We look forward to Manfred sharing his creative process with us at Brand2Global.
