Consulting firm name ideas
Generated names for a consulting or advisory firm with the domains that were open when we checked, and the personal-name versus brand-name decision most consultants face.
Consulting names split into two families. The first is the founder's name (McKinsey, Bain, Deloitte started that way), which is honest about who the client is buying and impossible to protect if the name is common. The second is a coined or abstract brand (Accenture, Slalom), which can outlive and outgrow the founder but has to be explained in the first meeting.
Either way, the name is read on a proposal cover and an email signature far more than on a sign, so it has to look right in a serif font next to a client's logo. Names built from a real word and a plain noun (Northgate Advisory, Clearwater Partners) do that well; names with a clever spelling do not.
Business consulting is class 35 in the USPTO register and the generic words (Advisory, Partners, Group, Strategy, Insight) appear in thousands of registrations; they are fine as the second word and weak as the first. The names below were generated by BetterNamer for the description above and checked for domain availability on the date shown.

Questions about naming a consulting firm
Should a consulting firm use the founder's name?
Use it if you are selling yourself and will never sell the firm. Use a brand if you plan to hire, partner, or exit. A common middle path is a brand name with the founder's name on the bio, so the firm can add partners without a rename. Either way check the name against existing firms; the advisory space is crowded with similar words.
Is .consulting or .io a credible domain for a consulting firm?
Both are readable to a business buyer. .io signals a technology practice and costs about five times a .com to renew at wholesale; .consulting and .partners are descriptive and usually available as the exact name, at roughly four times a .com to renew. Hold the .com if it is open, because the name will be typed off a business card.
Do consultants need a trademark?
Once the firm has a reputation worth protecting, yes, and business consulting services are class 35. Screen the name before filing: the words most consultants reach for appear in thousands of registrations, and a screening that comes back clean is what makes the filing fee sensible.
