Ask HN: How to find a Name for your start-up?

I really wonder how you guys are choosing a "name" for your start-up (i.e. domain name). It is like impossible to find a generic domain name that fits to your project. Only possibility, is to combine two words.

However, since I am not a native English speaker, I need feedbacks and would like to know if there are some ways to get feedback for domain names from other people. (If I share my top-ten list, then I am sure other people would benefit from it, so I need to find more clever name instead of asking at dnforum.com)

I have used some tools (bustaname.com) to find a combination of related names, and used (pickydomains.com) for finding a domain name, however I wasn't very lucky.

I would like to buy a great 4-char domain name like meto.com, but I dont want to spend all my seed funding to a domain name.

So I am in the middle of buying a great domain name and starting the project, or starting the project with a s*cking name. (By meaning starting= I am not referring starting from scratch, I ahve already worked on it but it is a nameless project!)

I am sure many of comments would be similar to: 1) Just start your company with a thisismycompamyandoingthisandthis.com and don't care the domain name 2) Your name is after what your project does.

But when we look back to the great projects, they somehow used great domain names, and didn't start with a bad name and soon after changed their domain name to a better one.
